i didnt mean like chemically how lol
just how you did it on your own. Anyways, looks good, your valve cover will look pretty cool, just maybe not as much flake in it

im thinking more black, but its ultimately up to you you might have a better idea from seeing it in person.

BTW the intake looks almost like an eel lol. sweeet.

lol the shape is weird right? lol i reallly wanted to keep my strut bar but didn't wana go to a stock intake. sucks i had to hack up my brand new aem tho..

damn dude, thats sacrifice right there. Hey, when you redo your valve cover sand off the lettering when your done or have it painted a different color, it will look soooo good.

I put masking tape over the whole thing with some overlap, then took a razor blade and cut the letters out, worked fine the first time i painted. I just repainted and sanded the top off for a brushed lettering look, looks sooo good.
