[SpawnedX]

I am also having difficulty locating a nice stylish chrome or stainless plug cover. The only one I could find says Injen and they want more then it will ever be worth.

Not great quality cause the phone sucks, but it looks hot up close, and yes that is one of Bonehead Performances oil cap with the etched Mitsubishi symbol.

Pink valve covers are the new black!

The valve cover I have now (not on the car yet) is currently red. Which is cool, but a bit boring and typical. So I have been trying to decide what color to go with. I'm leaning towards a dark purple or a dark green (maybe British Racing Green). However, I'm thinking of going a bit crazy at first and choose an off the wall color like chartreuse, Hello Kitty Pink or something else that is extremely lame, haha. I can see it now...

"Hey man, your Viper just got smoked by that car with a Hello Kitty Pink engine."

HAHAHAHA!

Here's a spare I've had sitting in my garage for a couple years. No need for it. It's powdercoated.

haha....walmart 500 degree glossy black spray paint....all i did was degreased the thing good and scrubbed it down and then started painting it....looked as though it was power coated....then i grinded the letters down to give it that shin!

[VanIsleDSM]

hey for all you guys using hyundai covers with the different font, what car did you get them from? and I've heard you need different hardware to mount the hyundia covers without leakage, what's the story there?

I really like the look of those guys.

I could've done a little better job on it, but overall I'm pleased.

Just picked it up from the Trial Performance here in Omaha. Only $45 with clear.

The Black valve cover is pretty sick, i may just do that, looks kind of stock and plain looking. Looks awesome.

I just did some basic colors. In another thread, I showed my Hot Bubble Gum Pink that I did for a friend, and I have a Dark Blue Metallic one I have on my car, then a Red one I did for another buddy. He messed up the red one later on, but it looked a hell of a lot better when I first did it. That is the only pic I have, I didn't have my camera to take pics when I was done with it.
