I thought that I would be getting a little more for $350. This picture dosent really begin to show the imprefections. There is a ton of dirt in the paint. But, I guess that is what I get for buying a gimmick part like a painted valve cover. The sad thing is, I still think it is badass and I like it more than the stock cover.

What is wrong with me?

Not gold or bronze, but how about powder coated bright red?
Wow now that is something I want to do, exept I think I would leave the spark plug cover untouched. Anyone know of who may be able to do this in SoCal?

That's pretty weak sauce... For about $15 you could have bought Air craft stripper and some Duplicolor paint.

Bad pics, but I don't have any better. I thought about gold, but opted for green.
