Painted valve cover

I decided to paint my valve cover and engine bay a theme that no on has had yet. Bubble gum pink, or as my dad says pepto bizmol pink. i decided that instead of using the valve cover bolts I would make a custom stud kit, because I kinda like the look of studs everywhere. Studs even were used on the coilpacks. I personally think studs make removing and aligning much easier




lets make a place to post pics of your valve covers, maybe it can be stickied:)

So when is this car going to be done? I like the idea of being different, but I thought this was going to be a road race car? You still have an auto trans in it, and painting the valve cover doesnt make the car any faster.
