Default Dipped Valve Cover

I haven't seen any hydro dipped valve covers on here yet so I thought I would post my fresh hydro-dipped valve cover. I wanted the aurora or nebula coating, but at $600 it was hard to justify spending that much for valve cover appearance.

This hydro dip job was around $150.00 shipped. What do you guys and gals think?

That looks pretty great man!
I dont know much about hydro dip. Was this done yourself, or did you have a shop do it for you?

A shop did it for me however I stripped the OEM wrinkle coat and prepped it for them.

I usually hate all things hydro dipped, but this is pretty damn awesome.
