This could be the difference between first place and second place in JDM class!

The Mugen valve cover is played out, get this and have an advantage over your competition!

You don't know what you're talking about.

As stated above, a Spoon valve cover is a JDM ITR valve cover that is painted yellow.

The red crinkle paint is still underneath the layer of yellow paint. The layer of yellow paint is smooth.

Exactly!!!

How close up you want? Any closer, all you will see is some yellow color in the picture. I only have the cheap digital camera, the picture file is only like 60k, this should tell you the quality of the picture is not good.

I think you guys are not too familiar with the new Spoon valve covers. Spoon uses unpainted valve covers which made by Honda and claimed to be a bit lighter over stock. There are absolute no red paint under yellow for the latest edition.

No, it just the valve cover itself!! Nothing extra, nothing less!!

Yes, the surface is smooth. Any red paint under it? I dunno, because I didn't try to scratch off the yellow paint to see it.

Latest edition?

What makes it lighter than a stock valve cover?

Sorry...but that is just too funny. It probably WAS lighter until it was painted and now weighs as much as stock.

Hahahaha. Spoon Valve covers are for people that have too much extra money to burn. If you want a yellow valve cover, go paint yours.
