The spark plug cover is the factry one...
i sent it to the chrome platers and shaved off the "honda-vtec" wording...

It is "painted" via a process called Pro Coating...but im ure some high heat resistant paint or engine enamel will work as well...
check out http://www.procoat.co.nz to learn more about pro coating...

You should try blue emblem - they work wonder on a silver car (used to have one). If you worry about getting rip off use 3M outdoor sign tape - they last for about 2-3yrs.
