heres my valve cover that was powder coated .. it looks wayy better in person










and my mani

 

Damn man thought I was on to a first lol looks great

 

Thats not bad at all...^ but IMO I would stick to doing tower bars, UICP, LICP, radiator shroud and #1 on my list would be dress up bolts. This method would absolutely be annihilate those expensive dress up bolts they sell out there. GL

 

All or nothing

 

What brand and name is the Powder used?

 

Chrome no-go

 

All the chrome/silver parts you see here (with the exception of the IM) are "chrome" powdercoat for a refrence to those of you looking do to this. IMO it looks amazing, not nearly as much work, and is really durable. All mine have a clear coat over them too, and it doesnt "dull" the color at all.

 

I bet the OP is talking about spectrachrome

I heard about this a while back... DO IT!

 

In process will post pics asap

 

Here you go
I polished my valve cover completely by hand back in July. Took about a week and a half because I had to find time to work on it after work and stuff.









And just for kicks: 3 bonus pics

NO chrome on an Evo!

 

Damn that polished valve cover looks sweet. How did you manage to polish the valve cover so well? Like what steps did you do to get it to that shine?

 

....It actually looks pretty good... Atlantic Motorsports(I believe technomechanica did it for them) had it on one of their shop cars back in 07 ...the car was featured in AWD special issue of Turbo Magazine...
