Hey Bucky, I got a valve cover for a KA24, just sittin' in my closet if you want it just to try something new. I got rid of my Nissan and I'm rolling TRD-dirty, so it serves me no purpose at all.

I can bring it you when I get my shit together and roll up there to get my taillights done. :D

That name tag cover is awesome. If I had thought of that, I would've done it. I've already painted my vc twice in the past week. I have one final idea, so I'll post it when it's done and smoothed out.

Do you have to use high temp paint on the valve cover? Last week I painted mine, I painted high temp paint, then the color I wanted (non high temp) and then a high temp clear. I wound up taking it all off before putting it on the car because I thought it would melt and didnt want the mess.
