Default POLL: D-Rob's Valve Cover - WHAT COLOR?! (Complete with pictures)
I recently picked up a valve cover from a buddy. It' shaved, and ready to paint.

The only thing is, I don't know what color to paint it.

So, I figured why not get some input from the H-T crowd.

Here's how she looks now.


And now here's some Photoshop'ed choices I've narrowed it down to.

Choice #1


Choice #2


Choice #3


Choice #4


And as always, I'm 100% open to suggestions.

Thanks, everyone!

- Derek

I'm just tired of the ITR cover.

I've had it for YEARS, since I bought my first B16 when I was 15.

Just time for a change.

Maybe just wrinkle red again.
