I just got my Dejon Tool UICP today. I'm going to be putting it on my car soon with a 1g bov. My UICP is black with a silver Dejon sticker on it. I have this valve cover waiting to go on my car as well.

I'm wondering if I should paint my bov black, or silver to match the lettering on the valve cover/sticker on the uicp.

I say just repaint the whole thing... paint the dark part black, and the gray/metal color part silver.
 
im still sorta new to the tuning ways, so, what does BOV stand for? and what do they look like? I think it has to do with the tranny...
 
bov= blow off valve. It releases air in between shifts and is positioned on the upper intercooler pipe on stock dsms. Also makes cool sounds when it releases the air.

I was actually thinking about that.
 
I think that would look good too, or just paint it silver to match the lettering, just one of those 2 :talon:
