another cover i had been inquired to do is finally finished, i hope he likes it.
I took a bunch of photos, because it's really hard to see the deep flat black, as you can see i have all the lights on and the flash.

^^ Glad to see someone who knows what they are looking for, and the resoning behind so many slightly different angle photo shots.

The second link is the Road Race Engineering Spark plug cover. They still sell them last time I checked.

As far as a valve cover that says "MITSUBISHI" on the top, that is from any non DSM with a DOHC 4g63. Check ebay/classifieds. Otherwise you need get one of those over priced "JDM" 4g63 engines, or luck out and find a DOHC Galant or a Galant VR-4 on a junkyard.
 
I personally enjoy the look of mine. The color is a ton more appealing than I had imagined it would have.

(Note : Engine bay has changed since this picture. 1G Mani = Gone as well as Turbo. ;) So no need to inquire on that.)

Here's mine. I painted in a year and a half ago with some red brake caliper paint from autozone.

I see you have those braided hose sleeves. How difficult are those to install? I've never looked into them, to be honest, but I've seen them at random parts stores. Seems to really clean up the bay.
