painted headlights and valve cover!

[mynameisbob28]

over the weekend I painted my headlights and my valve cover, but had some issues with fogging and wetsanding the lights, so just now getting around to posting pics... they're just now looking good enough to post... and still not as clean as I'd like.

anyway, the pics:

and the valve cover and cleaned up wires:

comments welcome and encouraged.

here's some interior pics that I took today as well

haha thanks. i tend to avoid the big puddles, so i should be ok without the bypass valve, but might as well keep it to be safe, right?
