I might have just found a new color for my valve cover to match my wheels. Nice job on the paint. Oh and it shouldnt have taken 4 days to dry. Thats silly. Looks nice though.

I new there was a reason the paint looked so good. The valve cover looks good and that is coming from a person who hates when people spray paint their stock parts.
