Did you paint your valve cover b/c it looks like to me that you just stripped off the oem black wrinkle paint. Not saying that it doesnt look good b/c I like it, but it just doesnt look painted. I like the sc.:thumbup:

Then I used silver engine enamel, because otherwise, the valve cover would just look like scratched up metal.
If you looked at pic of an actual stripped valve cover compared to mine, you would then notice the difference.
you can kind of think of what the valve cover looks like stripped when u look at the color/texture of the JRSC manifold behind it because thats how the metal looks when u take the black stuff off.
Using the silver paint made it really smooth and clean looking compared to just a regular stripped cover IMO.
