Who likes em shaved? :)

hehe, well here are some pics of my spark plug cover that I recently shaved and repainted. What I did was sanded off the nissan and also I filled in the indented part that said v6 3000. It used to be red but I wanted it silver so it can match my VI cover when I get it on. Pollished valve cover is also on its way sometime.

I prefer them shaved. I have no idea how this relates to Maximas, but shaved for me please. Although there is nothing wrong with a little Hitler mustache, if you know what I mean.
