Not exactly what I was referring to, but close. I think if you keep it a little more simple it'll look mint

they get pretty hot, use high temp paint, i know what valve cover you're talking about with the japanese flag, it looked pretty good, if i had a black car, i'd paint mine like a camo style or something, that would be pretty cool.

I think I read that you put the sealer at the four corners of the valve cover.
