Mad tyte 'Merica style valvecover

Just got my valve cover back from the power coating guy. He really enjoyed doing it.

Love the way it turned out. Sorry the quality sucks, will upload a HD one later.



Just something new and different. Don't believe anyone's tried it at least from what I've seen on here.

Doesn't look camo to me. It's different. Maybe using camo from either the Army, Marines etc. would have made it more 'merican. Looks good though.

The camo used is the OLD BDU style so it is ARMY camo. The new ACU style is more common but this still nice.

The old BDU's have more of a brown. That valve cover has what looks like a bluish color. (Unless its my phone screen making it look like that). Could be the meaning. Who knows? Still looks cool though. Nice job.
