    My powdercoated valve covers:






    Here is my shot at FRPP Wrinkle Blue valve covers. Only have this one done so far I'm in the middle of blasting the 2nd one. Not bad for damn near free VCs that weren't in the best of shape along with $20 worth of powder and a few hours of my time. Beats the hell out of buying the $300+ vcs from Ford. Tell me what you think! Lighting isn't great but they look good in person.

    Thanks to CollinsPC for giving me advice on how to use this wrinkle powder!

    Should look good! I used the same powder here as CollinsPC has so it should look similar.

    Yup, aluminum valve covers in an old oven I modified a little bit for clearance. Cut the door out and extended it 6 inches.
