    Wtf I've changed my cam cover (pics)

    I was tired of the chrome look, so I thought I'd tone it down a bit with a black powdercoated cam cover. What do you think?





    It's finished off with chromed bolts for a bit of detail, and I'll be changing the plug cover for a metal one which is machined flat and polished. That should look better than the factory one right?

    And just to spite me, the manifold has decided to go gold lmao

    And yes I know that vacuum line need re-routing, but it's giving me grief at the minute so it's staying put

    I think it looks better personally.
    When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

    Damn you all! Why can't you be like Clubcalibra where they all just nod and say "very nice m8, luks sick" lmao

    Actually no, I do prefer people who speak their minds!

    I'll have a think about what else I could do... I'm feeling an 18 carat gold rocker cover But it would cost an absolute bomb

    But it would match your manifold

    Black cover looks good mate , chrome one looked good too
    I haven't failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work
