Default What do you think of the color???

Well this past long weekend we were sittin around and I figured het it's nice out why not paint my valve cover a different color. So I went to Lordco and grabbed some high temp paint, it's a bronze/gold color. It was an easy job, thanks to Harp, Ryan and Derek. Anyway, here are some pics of what happened.

At least your smart enough to mask off the right areas. We got morons that paint the whole damn thing, spark plug holes and all : /

Or you can just use some oil or any kind of loition and rub it on the letters, and the paint wont stick to them. Thats what i did, and it was easy as hell to get the paint off without having to worry about scratching anything while using sandpaper! Looks like a nice job, for the diy

While you were painting the valve cover you should have thrown in a bronze STR cam seal . Looks original , I will wish you the best against it chipping.
