Hunter, you could either get some red couplings or paint the valve cover blue and then both of them would match each other!

[reddemonx92]

Cool but really, why red? why couldnt you paint it yellow to match your car better

[thehunterooo]

i like how some valve covers are a deeper red, and i wanted to do something similar and avoid too much yellow, so i want with chevy orange-red, a color they use on engine blocks and such, a bit too bright for what i wanted though

[reddemonx92]

Am i the only one that didnt paint over the words on the cover? Most people that ive seen paint the cover painted it completely

[thehunterooo]

i didnt want to at first, but it is just easier, and looks a lot cleaner i think

Red, you got a picture of what yours looks like?

I've been thinking about painting mine, but my car's got the silver/black theme going to it, and the cover is already that way. I think I'm leaving it that way for now (just added the "Protected by AMSOil Synthetic Lubricants" silver sticker and probably adding an emblem to it too... I'll shoot some pics and post them in my thread.

Yea its in my build thread. I believe the pic is in the 2nd or 3rd page.

voltmeter came in, fuel pressure should be here soon

sending my extra dash piece to mike for mods

found a place to chromeplate my valve cover

I have a new SRI pipe with filter and a 2007+sedan/2008+hatch radio install kit if anyone wants them

thats it for now

[serega12]

Don't you think chrome valve cover is a little to extreme? I'm not sure though, take some pics when you have that installed. And how much are they charging you for chrome plating it? And wouldn't it get damaged by engine heat/oil spills?

[thehunterooo]

thought it would be too much, but i think it will work well for what i have planned, idk about price yet, should last well im guessing
