I decided to polish my valve cover while I had it off replacing the gasket. I did it all myself, what do you guys think?

Looks tight, how long did it end up taking you? On a side note did you paint your upper T-belt cover or is it just the angle?
 
Well haha it probably took me 6 hours form the time I unbolted it, to the time I replaced the gasket and got new bolts on it and had it all polished up, and no I didnt paint the gear cover I just cleaned it up cause it just looked like crap but yea it took forever but its always worth it! haha
 
nice, i polished mines too first grinded off the letters. then started at 180,220,600,800,1200,1500 then polished it with a wheel and this is how it looks..took 7 hours and this was my first time ever LOL.
