yeh its not really doing nothing but not a prob either. as for the valve cover, looks gross!!! j/k it came out pretty good cant tell from the pics if it shines or not. wat did u use to do it? im guessing a brush? cus of the lil errors


BTW you should paint the bolts that hold it in place the same gold color, itll look pimp

Just used engine enamel, went over with the gold first, then covered it up with vasoline and did the rest of the cover black. That didnt work as well as I expected but oh well. And yeah in person it shines nicely.

Just make sure you use an even amount of paint. What kinda of paint are you using?
