So the background, for about a year my car has been leaking small amounts of oil. (my garage floor shows it.) When i brought my car in for the inspection in november, the mechanic said i was leaking oil, and he presumes its from the valve cover gasket. So about 2 weeks ago I got a replacement gasket, and today i finally maned up, and put it in.
^top of the motor off. While I was at AutoZone getting oil and a filter (im also going to do my oil) I picked up some Duplicolor High temp engine paint. ^ its the same color, just ones in the sun, other is in shadow....I masked off the 16valve part, and the oil, and top where the plugs are put in. REad on for more info. This post has been edited by devilsden97: Jun 2, 2007 - 3:57 PM -------------------- Kawi Love |

Yeah painted valve covers are a nice touch to the engine bay. I had a buddy powder coat mine. Came out really well. Here's a close up of the pearl. -------------------- From Japan to Texas my st202 follows me.
