Default What do you guys think?
We've all seen the Type R moon cut valve covers on ebay, they look sweet and cost an arm and a leg.



So my cheap *** decided to do something with the crummy looking first gen B16 valve cover.







Not as good as the ones on ebay, but hell if I'm spending $200.

My only question is what did you use to strip it and where can I buy that? I will go paint my valve cover today, I got nothing else to do (spring break ownz j00!). That valve cover looks real good
