Valve Cover Coating

[Savage90LaserRST]

So I recently sent my valve cover to a buddy of mine in PA, he does a ton of coating and such and recently got a pic from him of the finished product. I do not have received it back yet or otherwise I would have included installed pics. I will get those when it gets here. Until then a little teaser of what my engine bay will become..

Did Justin do this? It looks amazing.
He did my bronze valve cover and it came out perfect.

 

[Savage90LaserRST]

Yeah, the only person I would ever trust with coating anything of mine. He will get my business anytime I need something coated

That looks sick man. . I want to get mine done now! How much did he charge you?

 

[Savage90LaserRST]

200, but thats welding in the fittings bead blasting and then coating with the color and the anodized clear. This also included the shipping. And for the quality of work I did not even think about looking anywhere else to have it done.

 

[Rikolas]

Man I'm definitely going to have to look more into getting this done here soon, or after I come back from school. $200 is a good price compared to others right? And can it be any color I want?

 

[Savage90LaserRST]

Any color you want.. Check out his website. Justin does some sick sh!t

Now thats HOT!!!

When you get it all together Youll have to post picks cause your engine bay will be bitchen

 

[Savage90LaserRST]

Thanks man! He did an excellent job. I just cant wait to get it back. I have a COP setup waiting to be bolted on it as well.

 

[Rikolas]

Hmm.. the links to his colors isn't working. I wanted to know what white with black would look like. Or do you think it would get dirty too easily?
I'll be looking into getting this done within the next year, depending where I get stationed and if I have the time to set aside to get it shipped and wait for it to get done and come back. Did you just park your car until yours gets back? Or did you throw on another valve cover?

Long story short, I haven't been able to drive my car for over two years.... But I did throw my buddy's valve cover on while mine sits outside the shop since he had to tear down his motor again.. Also his colors almost never work.. I just had to Google search powder colors and picked that one because of the fittings. Then tlcoolj sold me the COP setup and its all black so it will look great.

2 years? Wow! . That's too long to have a car sitting for me. Get that think on the road!
I'll probably just google like you did. I was also thinking of a blue. But I'll see what I can find.

 

[Savage90LaserRST]

The only reason that I went with this color is because the reds and blues are overplayed because of the red/blue fittings.. Yeah being young and married with a new baby makes it hard to get the car back on the road. The baby takes precedent over everything else

So the valve cover finally made it in on Monday!! So excited!! haha I will get installed picks once I get a chance to get it on and my cop setup done!! Should be this weekend when I get that done and taken care of. Also took the cruise control out to mount the catch can there and will have the battery relocated to the trunk as well sometime soon. Should make everything pop really well with the color and cleanliness of the bay!

Justin did mine. Came out a little sloppy. The cc came out bubbly, and the bov was damaged. He seems to have gotten better.

looks sick man

 

[Savage90LaserRST]

He did a great job with mine... No issues except where I had a broken bolt hole for the spark plug cover but other than that its cherry

 

[gsmokez]

Wow that looks wicked. Can't wait to see the finished product.
