    OBD1 Valve Cover paint designs?

    Thought a thread for different OBD1 Valve cover piant styles/designs would be a nice thing to have. (not sure if there is one already, couldnt seem to find one dedicated to just this.)

    I just picked up an OBD1 metal valve cover from the JY and want to get it cleaned up and painted. my car is zinnoberrot red so its kind of difficult to find a color that would mesh well.

    designs like this...or anything really, just not stock



    I'm thinking keeping plastic M Power cover stock and painitng the front of the valve cover black with German Flag colors going over it.

    anyways, looking forward to seeing what people have done.

    bump, Im wondering the same thing now...

    I plan on doing something with my OBD 1 valve cover before I install it and am wondering what would be a cool color to use in the engine bay.

    Heres the typical black wrinkle coat finish
