Who here has powdercoated valve covers? I know of a few but who else? When I got to paint my car I'm gonna powder coat my valve cover but I'm not sure what colour to go with. Going with red would be nice if the exterior colour is a lighter tone (ie. my white) But if I do a darker exterior what would look better when the hood is lifted? It's not like i'm doing this this week (more like the next two months) so I have time to decide and check your opinions.

Thanks!

Are you going to have it done right? I mean right as in: by a proper painter? Just do red.

But please, if you do it yourself, dont make it look like ****. Half the ones people do are terrible looking. Maybe I just hold higher expectations for things I do, but honestly some of the stuff people put out are just trash.

If you do it right, it should come out quite nice. Either way you can probably just go with Red. If you paint your car blue you could use that but dont go with any wierd ass colors. Stick with Red/Blue and thats it.
