Default Thinking of painting my valve cover gold...

I know this sounds cheesy, but JDM hondaparts.com sold these for a while and they looked great. (can't seem to find the pics now on their website) Anyway, since my car is dark green, i think it might actually look good as a color combo. I am curious what you guys have to say. thanks.

That is good advice...I always do, but I just need help picturing it, you know?

But thanks...that was reassuring.

My friend painted his gold and before i saw it i thought it would look like crap but once i did see it i really liked it. Its a clean contrast on his black HB. If you want to do it, go for it. If you do it clean they look really good. Wheres Mr_Bojangles at? I know he has pics of his valve cover!!
