After going trough all the 320 pages of this thread the last few days, I decided to paint my valve cover yesterday.
The spark plug cover is painted in another color and should be ready soon. Here's a taste of the valve cover.....

I'm kind of embarrassed to post this here with all the awesome VC's on display, but here's mine, which I painted a few weeks ago:



I'm pretty happy with it except that the reds don't quite match.

Oh yeah, pay no attention to anything else in my sorry-@$$ engine bay, including the leaves...

Here you go. It was my first valve cover job and powder coating experience(eastwood kit with black wrinkle). It's not that original but it'll do until i come up with something different. Enjoy.
