Default JUN H22 Valve Cover? Where can I buy one?

I was wondering if anyone knows where I can buy a JUN H22 valve cover?
It looks like this:


I didn't see any information about it in JUN's website. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

it is most likely a valve cover painted yellow with a jun sticker on the spark plpug wire cover. make it yourself

i don't understand why people buy that kind of crap for ungodly prices when it can easily be duplicated.

why not just show the pic to a paint shop and have them paint one like it for you. All it is is a green to yellow fade, and some decal on the spark plug cover.

Sorry, I didn't know how much it cost and I don't know how easily I could duplicate it. Just some high temp spray paint?

1 can of yellow heat-resistant spray enamel - $3.00
1 can of green heat-resistant spray enamel - $3.00
1 "JUN" valve cover - Priceless (or $6.00, depending on how you look at it )

no need to apologize, just making an observation. anyway, yes a painted valve cover is easy. there is an extensive write-up if you search for it. but basically strip the old paint, primer and spray with the color of your choice. (hi-temp eng. paint is what i used) then sand the letters back down to metal. (don't use the chapstick method for the letters it is alot harder)

Personal observation if I may?

Unless you have a lot of JUN stuff... why would you want a fake JUN valve cover?
Isn't that the same as sticking a Type R sticker on your Prelude?

Cool thanks, I'll look for that post.

EDIT: I think I'll also have to polish it.

If you wanted to do it right, go to a powdercoating shop, and have them powdercoat the thing. However, unless you've got some JUN cams and valvetrain under that purty valvecover you're just going to get laughed at.

i think it just about equates to the sticker theory. it won't give you 20hp. do it if they're your sponsor. or unless you have the full valvetrain and cams.
