is there any way to distinguish a real spoon valve cover as opposed to a jdm itr valce cover painted yellow? like any markings or anything? help would be appreciated cause im about to buy one off craigslist

A "real" Spoon valve cover is just a JDM valve cover painted yellow. If you like that look, do yourself a favour and simply strip and paint or powdercoat your existing cover.

 

lol seriously, They're trying to sell that for $418... Ridiculous...

 

thats what im sayin...my first post said it was an itr vc painted yellow, than the second post said it was "genuine" for 420 bucks...i dont care if its genuine or not im paintin that bitch

 

wow ok thanks alot guys

 

i painted mine brown

 

lol you can tell everyone brown is the new JDM style and i guarantee there will be hundreds of people with a brown valve cover

 

lol haha, I'm painting my next 1 chrome or if not that then I'll do some fancy designs. My friend powdercoated his pink with louis Vuton designs. It looked hella clean. Got me thinking of ideas to do mine.

 

i think the valve cover should compliment the paint job....chrome is nice but i hear that it makes quit a diference in engine bay heat...i dont know how true it is but thats just what ive heard
