Default POWDERCOATED valve covers.....pic!!

washed the engine bay 2 days ago and got everything all wet, car wouldn't run good, so took it all apart and changed plugs and wires, and some of the hoses all got dry out, so replace all of them too,

also did the throttle body coolant mods, thanks to GAZI....GREAT guy!!!

then found out the distributor O-ring and valve cover gaskets are leaking, so just redid everything at once, since had the cover off, and we do full POWDERCOATING & CHROME here, we just powdercoated the covers, was gonna go with chrome, but i really don't got the time, just want the car back into one piece and get it back on the road.....but the covers turned out GREAT....also was gonna do the top intake and throttle body, but again, i didn't have the time to let the car sit around.....very busy this time of the year.....but if anyone of you out there would like to get the intake and stuff powdercoated or chrome, let me know, as long as you can let the car sit around for a week.....

oh yeah, by the way, the car runs PERFECT for 83k original miles......i will try to post some custom brakes & wheels picture later....

Thanks for the pics
Can the parts be sent to polish before chrome? I am under the impression that this is required on aluminum. Thanks.

all chrome plate jobs will require the polishing part, and most of the time will be spend in the polishing part also, we do all here, from start to finish.....of course there are more then just polishin and chroming, you gotta stripe it, clean it, just gotta follow step by step........and not just alumium, can do on most metals.....

I would've been confused too... it was in caps. ASP. So it looks like it could've been initials.

Venom do you own a Venom Viper? If you do, you've gotta alot of cash...
