So I went to get a set of tire and discount tired royally screwed the powder coat on the front rim lip. So I decided to go ahead and remove the rest of the PC from all the other rims. I am also in the process of having my valve cover repainted so I stripped it and I am planning on painting it the same color as my car or just repainting it back to stock. SO here you go

Thanks guys, I think the wheels look better that way also. As for the valve cover, I am going to have to PS some and see what I like.

Dude it doesn't matter what you do to the valve cover. Your 3G has LS/VTEC! That wins right there.

the lip looks pretty good, but if it happened to me, i would get mad at the retards that changed the tires. Wouldn't they realize after scatching the first rim, they should probably stop, and not scratch the others?


anyway...

Actually they only messed up one rim, I did the rest. Honestly they will get whats coming to them in the long run.

Ok like this except the color of my car. Then I would paint the cam gear cover part black and the spark plug wire cover black.

the valve cover looks nice , try buffing the hell out of it with a buffing wheel , and the rims looks killer

The lip looks good. Sucks that they messed it up. I would paint the valve cover the color of the car, that would look nice.

Great engine comp. pictures, real clean.
I suppose the power steering is delete. I can not see, but assume the alternator survived the swap?
I think body color would look good since you blacked out the aprons and firewall, the contrast would look cool.

good choice on the polished lip for the rims. i'm liking the valve cover too, i have a thing for polished aluminium.
