I see many of you have painted the plastic valve/pack cover. How would I do that, also what paint did you use. Thanks!

It's called a coilpack cover though and you can use regular plastic paint of any sort and then I would recommend clear coating it.

Hell, I used regular Rustoleum on my front VC and after a couple months now, no issues with bubbling or anything. Looks the same as my UIM/IACV, which were done with engine enamel.

High-temp paint is for peace of mind.
