Now I just need to reinstall it




















HAHAHAHA. I gave up after a few times under the hood. I took another used one to a plating shop and they polished it for me for $95! So I was like heck let them do it! I could never get it to look this good.

lol. i did.

would you know how much a used valve cover would run me? doesn't seem too bad to do for 95 bones. if it only takes a little time i could part mine out and bring it in, but then i'd be driving a camry around, and we can't have that.

Usually about 3 days after you drop it off it takes the place to do it. New ones are near 100. Used not sure, got it off another member.
