Default Non Vtec cool valve cover

Hey I was just wondering if a VTEC valve cover will fit my B20B head? I dont want to be a poser but I just want my engine to look cool until I do my VTEC conversion. (VTEC Valve cover=C1 or C5 head)

Its ugly as hell.
Like someone replaced my head with Flava Flavs head.

You are a poseur, get over it.

No, the valve cover won't fit. Paint your stock one.

You can just use paint stripper on it, then use VHT black or red wrinkle finish.

My engines valve cover came with the red wrinkle finish flaking off. VHT red wrinkle finish fixed the problem.
