looks good. I was about to paint my dc header with the same paint. What paint color did you use flat aluminum or flat silver. Id like to keep it as original as possible and yours seems to look nice.
Thanks

I sold the car awile back but the other valve covers that I did have held up for years without any problems. I never use primer on the valve covers, just sand it good and spray the wrinkle finish paint on it.
