Default New valve cover color//New Pics Page 3

So I got bored today and painted my valve cover. I got sick of the blue, and went with a gray. Let me know what you think.

I will tomorrow. It is drying now, so it will be in the AM before I put it on. I also started polishing my exhaust cover. It took forever to get all the paint off. LOL I am gonna finish it tomorrow as well.

Looks sweet. I like the metalics in the grey. I painted my valve cover, radiator mounts, and exhaust shield green like the inside of my car.

Yeah, I didn't know it was metallic till I started spraying. LOL Once I saw it I loved it though.

That looks sooooooo much better than the blue. I'm glad you painted it.

<-- Waiting for installed pictures. [sm=smiley20.gif]

I was thinking of instead of sanding the "HONDA" to bare metal, painting it either white or red. I dont know though.

Yeah I would say go black, though the red does look pretty cool.
