Default Valve cover I powdercoated for a buddy. Lemme know what ya' think.
Letters need to be polished up a bit...

Was going for Type-R lookalike. Textured semi-gloss red polyester powder. I think it came out pretty good.

Nah, this is my buddie's GSR. We had just swapped it into this new car from his wrecked old one, not everything was hooked up yet.

His best time in his old car was 13.8. All-mota' GSR w/ Skunk 2 IM, header and exhaust.

It's not so pale in person, but yeah, it is a tad light.
