Default LS Custom Valve Cover

I see all neat kinds of B-series vtec covers.But i never really see any kind of ls covers.So i thought i would kinda make a custom one.This works on 96+ ls covers.I filled the lines going across.Then Primered it,and painted it gloss black.Looks pretty good!Heres some pics

ok well im sure that you're aware that the c5's, c1's and newer b16's have like a wrinkle style finish on the valve covers. now most people that have big boost setups rarely go with a vtec head (at least i wouldnt). i just thought that it might be kinda cool to have the same style valve cover while going boost. it would throw most people off, or might rub it in to those hard core vtec peoples. i guess it wouldnt be considered a orange peel style paint. anyways here's a link on a diy. https://www.honda-acura.net/forums/s...ht=valve+cover
