Just did the valve cover last weekend. It actually turned out pretty nice.

I also did the interior with that new duplicolor vinyl/interior paint. It's a brighter yellow, and it came out NICE. I'll post them soon. I seriously recommend this paint though, and I'll write up a review soon.

Wow, looks REALLY nice mang.

3 suggestions...

1. Paint the cover on the left of the valve cover assy the same Gold color. Like 3 bolts mang.

2. Get an aftermarket oil cap. Trust me, yours will discolor.

3. Maybe paint a few other small things in the bay with matching colors.

Looks frantastic!

Default Re: Emissions leak

thanks REDZ! i have painted lots of the caps and what not, but i want an optima yellow top and all of the hoses done soon. all in due time.....

and i agree about the timing cover. i realized i should have done it at the same time right when i put the valve cover back on.

i'm glad you like it though. i really wasn't sure about the color selection at first, until i started painting. now i'm glad i went with the ferrari theme. vibrant canary yellow interior, but gold accents under the hood.

the interior is lookin' REALLY nice too. i'll post them soon.

Lookin good. smile.gif

You should post pictures of your interrior as soon as possible. I have a red tib also and it took forever to pick out 2 colors for the interrior. I went with silver and red and it looks awesome, but now you got me wondering what yellow would look like.
