Two part post.

First off, I won't be able to pick one up like I had thought. Sorry man.

I'm thinking about taking you up on this offer, $45 would cover a DOHC S13 valve cover in flat black?

Im not sure what you mean by not being able to pick one up? I think you may be confusing me with someone else

Anyways yes $45 will cover prepping, masking, shipping and coating. Flat black is a single stage so $45 is the price.

It's okay, lol. I can't decide if it's worth the extra cash at this time or not. The rest of the car needs a little too much attention possibly...lol

I do have orange in stock but its not a metallic in terms of sparkles built in. I have a Candy orange in stock. If your looking for a type of flake I can lay down a metallic silver and spray the Orange on top or spray a sparkle clear on top.

This is the orange I have.



I can also get whats called Shimmer Translucents which have sparkles built in.

Candy colors are an aditional $10. As for providing valve cover you can send yours in or for an extra $20 I can source one for you and you wont have to worry about core charges.

Julian,

I've got an fwd SR20DE valve cover that I would like to be coated in a blue similar to Cusco's blue. Would that be Candy Blue?

I've also got a set of 4AGE valve covers plus the plug valley cover that I would like coated. I'd like the covers coated Red Wrinkle and the valley cover Black Wrinkle. Like this:

I forgot to mention that I have an S14 Twin Cam... I would like to get it if you can ship it to Guam, USA (96932).

I like the wrinkle black with the still natural silver raised lettering as shown in your other thread about powder coating.

Can I use Paypal?Thanks

Well theirs a few ways we can do it. A. you could send yours in. B. I can go to the junkyard and pick up a SOHC for an extra $20 charge. If we go with B I can probably have it done tomorrow, sunday or tuesday. But if you ship yours the turn around time can be about 3weeks which includes your shipping time. I usually have it done within a few days of receiving it. With online orders I do paypal, I've gotten burned before for being generous.

Im still doing the special since it ends tonite. Its $50 shipped to do the cover, and $20 if you want me to pick up a cover for you. Thats $70.00 Shipped.

I have Candy blue in stock but its tough to say how close it is to that strut bar.

Heres the candy blue I have. Now the color may be a little darker when I lay a base chrome down. This cover has a silver vein base which is a little lighter than chrome.

that blue looks pretty off... perhaps its the picture... in ur opinion does it look close to the blue in the vid i had posted? or the 350z blue? i dont want an exact blue.. but not a way different one either.. i would need to deposit money in the bank in order to send paypal. Unfortunately i dont get paid till thursday. i could definately jus have you use ur own valve cover.. not a problem... so $70 shipped right? can u wait till thurs for the pay pal? assuming u can get close on the color that is. minus the sparkle of course jk
