Here it is on the car...
Nick, I just taped off hte center black part and then put another piece of tape over the Nissan letters and used and exacto knife to cut around the letters. Oh yeah, after 2 or 3 coats of paint I added 3 coats of high-temp clear coat.

Nice Paint
Did you just clean the cover or did you sand it too?

Hi guys, thanks for the props...
No sanding, I just washed it really well with dish soap & hot water...
DMbrazilian, I think white would look great, as long it's close to your exterior paint color. And yeah, it's a piece of plastic that attaches on top of the front 3 cylinders, but not really a part of the engine, just sort of decoration (you can take it off and drive it without anything going wrong).

How exactly does the valve cover come off? Does it just pop right off and pop right back on or are there screws or something?
Thanks,
