Mine's pretty basic. Is powder coated 'Gold Hammer Tone'. It's a textured finish, looks really neat in person when the light hits it just right. No shaved letters, may do them later.

Those covers with the graphics... is that a decal, or just a paint pen, ive been wanting to do a couple things with the 2 extras i have, and i think the decal wouldnt last long, and i dont have a steady hand for this...

Yeah it was paint pens. We tested it on my other and no problems about the heat. But I hope the extra heat from a turbo wont mess it up or anything. i think it should be fine!!

Hey, you! Yeah! The idiot with the purple cam cover.

Pull out that ricer tiny filter off there and put your PCV hose back into the intake pipe.You drive around like that and the car will run rich because the blow-by gas that was metered by the MAFS won't go back in for burning and there will be more fuel than needed. That'll rub oil off your cylinder walls and have the engine wear out quick.
