The Ford valve covers (or cam covers) on the 4.6 L Mustang engine are unfinished and leave the engine compartment looking more then lacking. A quick way to improve the appearance of the engine compartment is to paint these covers. Powder coating is a bit more expensive but definitely preferable since it will last much longer and is more resistant to chips and scratches. Once you decide to paint your valve covers, the choice of colors is daunting. Some decide to use traditional Ford engine colors such as blue or orange. Others have decided to paint their valve covers to either match or contrast their body color. If you can’t make up your mind, you can always paint them a chrome color. If you are powder coating, reflective chrome is the closest thing to chrome. Lexus IS350 Parts
Well, anyways, thanks for the compliments, guys. I wanted to do something different and I haven't seen a lot of semi-gloss black valve covers, so I thought it would look cool. I kinda liked the way it turned out.
