I painted a stock MSP cover silver to match the car. Added a carbon fiber inlay were the badge was and a cf oil cap. In the process of polishing the piece of valve cover that is open. Any other suggestions?

I can powdercoat the header heat shield in a high temp black powder like I did mine. And I can also powdercoatr the valve cover if your interested. Here is a pic of mine, th e valve cover was done in Smoked Chrome and the header heat shield doen in high temp black.

Paint the "DOHC 16 Valve" black or gunmetal.
I thought of that, but I did not want the text to stand out from the carbon fiber. I like it subtle.
 
Your valve cover came out nice. My other thought was that only performance parts will be red and nothing else since the eye is drawn to it.
 
Wow very clean bay. Not a drop of grime. I like the idea, but It's hard to judge from one close up picture. I'd like to see a couple pictures with the hood open from a feew feet, so we can see how it ties into the paint, ya know?

Sprout, that is some cool looking powder on your valve cover. I might have to look into that when I get ready to coat mine.
 
lookin good man, what are you using to polish the cam gear cover (whatever that thing is called?) id like to do that to mine....also, here is a pic of my updated bay, next is a polished heatshield....
 
thanks guys.

I am located up in Canada near Niagara Falls, just over the border from Buffalo NY. I can powdercoat any color, I have done lots of Candy Red. Here is a Mazdaspeed valve cover I did in Super Mirror Orange

I am not a vendor on here so I am not sure if I can post about the work I do, I really should look into it, we also do carbon fiber work and in the very very near future chroming as well.
