painting valve cover.....
#3
ok... like t2000j said remove the cover and get some high temp paint. i also used a high temp clear coat as well. tape off any thing you do not want painted. use some sand paper to rough the surface so the paint will cling.
here is a little trick- to keep the raised nissan letters silver, put some grease on the top of the letters before you paint it. once you are done painting, u can use your finger to remove the "painted grease" and the letters stay silver. here is a pic... it is not very good, but is shows well enough

Ryan, you can use tape to cover the silver letters before painting it. I recommend doing a couple of coats of paint until it looks smooth.
Hey Jeff, your Maxima reminds me of my '99 because I too have a FSTB, red calipers, red s/p cover, shoulder pads, and clear corners
