Show your customized engine covers!

Like the title says, just post pics of your engine/valve covers. I am in the works of customizing mine which I already have the design drawn out, just need the material to do it. I did the engine covers on my old b16 Sentra SER Spec V(traded-in) which is found on my instragram also done by spray can=/ still turned out great though IMO. Would like to see the creative minds of our fellow 7gen owners who spent time decorating their engine bay=).

Also, please post if you did it yourself or if it was done by a shop. Would be good to give the shop props for the work they did or even props to you if you did it all yourself=).

**Note**There probably is already a thread out there about this but I am too lazy to look for it and bored at work so figured would start my own thread=).

I did this myself with plasi dip. I've noticed that it sticks a little to my hood when it's hot and I pop it open. Nothing serious and no color has faded or anything. Yet. Have had it on about 2 months now. I'll be re-doing it with the addition of the glow in the dark dip.

Wow that image is HUUUUGE! I just copied the IMG from my photobucket. How could I go about making the image smaller so it's not ruining it for other peeps. Anybody?

The strut from what I hear about in reviews is mainly cosmetic, hardly any noticeable performance from the front strut tower bar(again, from what I read in reviews about it). You'll get more noticeable performance from the rear sway bar($125 investment I believe=) ).

Anyone else with custom covers? Mine is still in the works hope to get it done soon.
