Default Painting my Valve Cover

I still have my old B16 Valve Cover and was thinking about Painting it or getting it Powder Coated some crazy *** color. I currently have a JDM CTR Valve Cover but I have this one lieing around and none seems to want to buy it so what the hell, I might as well put it to good use! I can use it to switch around with my CTR Valve Cover when Im bored at looking at a Red Valve Cover in my Engine Bay. i was thinking about Painting or getting it Powder Coated Pink, but wanted to know if anyone else had any cool Colors I could pick from or maybe some off the wall crazy ideas.

Lets hear em!

im pretty sure blue wrinkle paint is out there. but if you dont want to search for it then you can paint your valve cover wrinkle black first. then spray the blue over the black. now you have wrinkle blue.
