Wrinkle finish on valve covers - bad idea?

[Sapperfire]

Now I'm on the hunt for some clear blue... Over silver vein, will look killer

I have a black textured finish, and they are easy to keep clean with just an air hose. Don't put any type of towel on them though. Lint everywhere. It is way worth it for the coolness factor. I would do it again in if I had to, in the same flat black type finish

What'd you do with all the crap that's mounted to the driver's side valve cover?

^ you should be on the hunt for a running motor, spray paint didnt make it run, neither will powdercoat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had that breather on the drivers side cam cover to help exhaust crankcase air from the engine. The problem with the breather, is it spewed oil along with the air all over the motor.

That is now history, and I have replaced it with a oil catch can with a integrated breather that is installed in the drivers side fender where the cruise control module use to be. There is a line running from both cam covers to the catch can now. Here is a picture of the drivers side oil catch can line:

IMRCs and EGR controllers. Mines gone too.

I used a red clear over silver vein - really easy to keep up...
