OH! VTEC haha thats great, those do looks awesome, im going to do mine up nice somehow when the engine comes out

70 bucks. colors available are black, bronze, white, blue, rd metallic black, metallic silver, and gold. other colors add $20. its alot cheaper than buying a new vc and he does awesome work.

i want to have the dohc vtec shaved but still not sure if i want to add something else!

this isn't a vc that he's painted but i thought it was worth putting up here b/c its funny as hell and is original.

ok...do u use clear coat on these things? and do u need pain stripper for the vc's or can u jus sand its down...n how the hell do u get rid of the letters do u shave them? anohter thing is takin the valve cover off as simple as a few hoses n screws?

[mcimo]

I'll be painting mine soon, so I'll put it up when it is.
BTW: this is post 100 for me! Bronze member FTW!!!

yep just a dozen or so bolts..plus when u put the new vc on make sure you take the rubber seals off the old vc
