Yea the top lines are still painted but ima sand them pretty soon. And I will also be putting nr crew in the middle so I can't wait for that. Now for the paint I used was some engine enamel that my friend gave me but I'm not sure what exact color green it is but its bright so I love it. But yes as soon as the weather gets nice I will surely put the valve cover on my car and then ill post another pic for all of you. Also thanks for the compliments

His Air intake for the Valve cover isn't in.

I use a small filter on mine though.

*sorry about thread jack, just pointing it out*

I don't see a Connection on his valve cover for it though, So I don't know what you plan to do?

LOL that lil filter looks funny :D

i did that to mine and didn't like since it effected my ilde a bit and just extended my intake and connected the hose back

On the valve cover there is supposed to be a breather where that hole is above the oil cap. That is where the 2g accords have them. Notice in my build thread on my 2g valve cover mine is still in place but I also didn't connect it to the intake.

yea reason for that hole in the intake is because i used to have it connected to my old valve cover but now with the new one i cant really do that so i put a lil filter just like nio's on. but if you guys want ill post a pic later tomorrow and show you how i have it now.

and SZfiftyfour i will let you know the color tomorrow
