Looks good. I'm hoping that the paint holds up too. I just used the same stuff on my Supra Valve covers.

i think you should have put it on even heavier!
/sarcasam i dunno if its the flash, or maybe cause its wet still, but that looks like its REALLLLLY heavy? then again, it could just be how it comes out of the can to get that texture. i wanna see some installed pics bro! -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)

whoah that looks outta control, is it suppose to look that thick? It does not look like a honda valve cover type wrinkle, maybe you should try taking better pics in the day and installed.

Maybe it's just the pictures -- this is not meant to be mean-spirited -- but looking at those engine bay pics would lead me to suspect a spectacularly bad and prolonged oil leak.

Words fail me...
I have to agree with the person above who said it looks like oil got all over your intake and valve cover. The texture is inconsistent and patchy. I just don't like it at all. --------------------  |
