Painting valve cover with dsm spark plug cover

[KSnippy]

Anyone have any input on what to paint the valve cover with one of the aluminium spark plug covers with the dsm logo etched in? Got it when I purchased the car and would like to use it.

I was thinking red with black on the plug wells so it shows the logo. I would think you need some contrast to show off the logo.

Send it to my brother and he can powder coat it, then it won't be affected by heat and it won't peel either. Plus he can do candy colors in powder

I'm a paint advocate. I've seen so many engines with damage from blast media, or powder overspray. I chemically strip mine, degrease them in a parts washer, clean them with acetone, and paint them with high temp engine paint.

I like the black. I was considering doing black with red lettering and painting the exhaust heat shield black also, nice clean look. Thought it might be nice to add some color though.

Ive painted a couple valve covers in the past and have had good luck with it. I dont see a problem with it.
