It looks like a valve cover you'd find inside something Ken Block would drive.

It looks really great though!

thanx guys! stephen, i was actually thinking the same thing, im considering going over it with a couple more lines. believe it or not i was hesitant on doing the lines but without it, it looked too plain for my taste.

should i do the timing belt cover with the green lines? and the relay covers? my first thought was to leave it alone. didnt want to get too crazy...

At first I was all...


Then I approved. Looks good! I don't know if I'd do the lines on the timing belt cover or anywhere else, but I'd at least do the glitter black.
