Those look great. That's an interesting paint job on that oil pan.

OK, I didn't like that empty space in the center of the valve cover, so I made a set of these to go there.

I have a pair of aluminum valve covers that I lightly blasted, then painted with high heat ceramic engine paint (dull silver) out of a rattle can. Cooked them in the oven at 450 degrees for an hour. They have been on the car for 8 years and still look cherry.

Looks good Freddie!
I don't see any Kentucky Chrome anywhere (duct tape).
