I picked up a spare valve cover this weekend..and my friend and I decided to paint it white...polish the letters..and repaint the sparkplug cover black. I also decided to paint my center tail light section white as well. And to top it all off i painted my calipers white. Not too bad for a weekends work and a DIY!! Tell me what you think.

looking good :thumb: . what did you use to paint the calipers? im thinking of doing mine red.
 
I used High temp. paint...they also have paint specifically made for painting calipers, which i didnt see until after i already did mine. I just made sure i cleaned them really well before painting them.
 
Looks close to the one in wolf20043's Gallery that He did, minus he did the writing blue.
Looks good though. :thumb:

That spark plug cover looks awesome flat black like that. I was deciding what to do with mine, and I think Im going to have to copy your idea. :shhh: Painting calipers is a little ricey but I must admit I like it if its done right. :rocks:
 
Everything looks sweet. How did you paint your centerpiece? I've been wanting to paint mine for some time but i wasn't sure how to go about doing it.
