post your painted/powdercoated/anodized valvecover!
since it seems the first thing everyone cleans, paints, or looks at in the engine bay is the valve cover, i thought a thread showcasing everyones valvecovers would be great.
i am debating what i want to do with mine right now, so being exposed to others choices would be great.
please also list if you used high temp paint, powdercoat, anodization, etc for your medium.
thanks!

no its not powdercoated. its just a long time sanding and making it smooth. i used duplicolor platinum, and the duplicolor gunmetal wheel paint. with duplicolor wheel clear. it seems like it will hold up fairly well.

A pic of my old KA-T set up. The valve cover was painted with Red high temp engine paint, I then sanded the paint off the letters, then clear coated. The cover held up very well. I no longer have the KA-T set up. Im in the process of doing a SR swap. The SR valve cover is powder coated candy blue.
