Too bad there aren't a whole lot of sweet valvecovers out for us centerbolt guys... *shrug*

I kinda like black rattle-can stamped steel.

Here they are. Simple but with a statement.

No, those arent mine, yet!!! But they are the ones I will be using when I get to that point. I have seen these with raised portion painted red. Really kick a$$.

Yeah, but I don't know how to get some off the web either. I have a truck in my favorites I want to see if someone can do some paintshop work to. Can anyone help???
