Default Opinions wanted!!!

Ok,

The crx is nearing completion. My wife hates my pink valve cover so i am planning on doing another cover. I would like to see some blue honda's that have there valve covers painted or whatever to get some ideas. Post up or give honest opinions please!!! Car is b47-M superior blue if that helps,also here is a reference pic.I have browsed the Valve cover thread but most cars are black/red whatnot.

It's your car, why does she have a say in what's done?

But if she wears the pants, then a paint matched would be nice.

Its not that she wears the pant's. I want to include her in the car. Always nice to have a woman's touch thrown in the mix.

I can powder coat myself i just need to see some examples. I have a dupont color change cover also, I am in the process of stripping a b16 cover to do something with.

Was thinking some type of a wrinkle finish, to stay away from base coat/clear or even tri stage like my pink cover. Want something sort of original,but also complement the bay.

Here is a pic of the other cover i will run for tuning purpose's
