Default got inspired today, did a little project

Well i was poking around on HAN earlier today and came across 95civicex4dr's thread with this valve cover job and got inspired to do it my self. It is by no means a flawless job but it looks pretty good. It will look better when i can finnaly get this turbo shat bolted up :rick:
