spark plug and valve cover

That ugly plastic cover has got to go. I've been a mitsu guy for years and I like the clean look like most others.

I had a spark plug cover machined out of billet aluminum and powdercoated along with a powdercoated valve cover.

It looks far better, what do you all think?? Also finished our upper IC pipe as seen in the picture, 4" core race IC coming soon too!!!





think we ought to make the valve cover red and spark plug cover black????

I too don't like the plastic cover.

I will hold judgement until I see it on the car.

Yeah, I hate the plastic cover. I am happy to see someone took the courage to do something with the valve cover. I truly do miss the Mg powdercoated VIII and IX valve covers.

The colors should be the other way around. Red valve cover, black spark plug cover. But it doesn't look bad. Installed Pics!
