Powder coated header cover ftw watcha think?

Well I got bored one night and had 2 header covers so i powder coated one to see if I liked it. It's held up perfect with no distortion from heat. I could have used high temp spray paint but since I have all the equip to powder coat I figured eh why not. I did it in high gloss black 140 gloss. Looks so much better when I pop the hood. I am also thinking of doing the plenium. Watcha think.

I like it. Maybe powder coat the other one silver to keep the OEM look.

When are we pulling that motor?

*EDIT* Never mind. I just saw your other thread.

That's strange, I don't really know what to say. Only auto tranny I've removed was on my Buick and it came right apart.

Also just wanted to throw it out there if anyone wanted theirs done and want to ship it to me all i ask is pay shipping and if u wanted to throw 2-3 bucks at me to cover powder i'd coat it for you for pretty much free. Just a heads up. Hope thats not breakin any rules as it's a free service.
