To this (Does anyone have 4 extra wire cover nut caps? I'm need them! Ps. the mechanic dropped brake fluid on my valve cover...)

To that (soon hopefully):

You should use the same colors on the rest of your car to, not many people can pull color patterns like that.

Default my valve cover
the red valve covers are annoying, that black mark was from a hose that used to go to a catch can, cant get it off. i found a place that sells red wrinkle paint though.

the letters stick up, so all you do is sand the paint off. I use a micro grinder, with a 2" 50 grit disk. this makes it look just like the machining done originally. I'm sure you could use a Dremel tool or just a file to do the same thing. If anyone wants to know where to get black or red wrinkle paint. I got it from this place called tool time on Hopkins street in Whitby. Its just past the AMC complex off Thickson Rd.

Here is mine (got dirty after awhile lol)
Also, the heat shield has been painted

I really want to clean up this engine bay, piece by piece. I've done a pretty good job keeping it clean.
