s50 magnesium valve cover powder-coated?

[EastCoastErik]

Hi all. I need to replace my s50 magnesium valve cover. Can someone please recommend a reputable seller? Ideally, I'm looking for one powder-coated. I'm located on the East Coast USA. Many thanks.

If you're looking for the factory finish, You can still get these new form BMW for a reasonable price. BMWCCA discount!


Most need a lot of work due to the material to get a good refinish. And will leak if not smooth and prepped.

painting and powder coating never really hold up on those. a nice new, unwarped, OE valve cover is around $280 or so. bite the bullet.
