Default New Valve Cover!!!!

Just got my new valve cover in today. Cant decide on what color to paint it, so any suggestions would help. Started to clean it, but the rain came so had to call it a day. Anyways heres a pic.

you bought another one? what about the one on your car? i might want to do this also. lol. the color choice really depends on how the rest of your engine looks like. i personally like black or red valve covers

yeah i bought one off ebay. Our 99-00 dont have vtec on the front. I think it looks way better. It was only $42 shipped. I was thinking a darker blue, but not too dark. Im going with a blue theme for my car. Although gunmetal would be sexy!!!!!!

I think gunmetal will look sick, with blue spark plug wires. I really would like to paint the cover blue tho, but im hesitant because I dont want to have miss matched colors under the hood. Also if I paint it gunmetal what color should i paint the honda and vtec logos?
