I'm not even sure if there are any readily available, but I too am still wondering if there is. The d-series just isn't that cool looking. But hey, at least the 7th gen got the little plastic cover!

Call me stupid but one of the most appealing things to me on a b-series (that's vtec at least) is the nice big valve cover sporting the DOHC VTEC. haha.

I've never seen an aftermarket cover for our cars. My buddy has a 6th gen and he painted his with a really nice gloss black. It really looks trick. I'm going to pull mine off and spray it chrome. Alsa makes all kinds of sweet paint. I think you're best bet is to paint it, or send it off to be powdercoated or chromed.

Never seen a valve cover, I know that there are aftermarket spark plug covers. But if you happen to come across the valve cover let me know too please.

By the way, here's the link for the spray chrome I want to use. Check it out. You can also browse the site for whatever else they have.

The other Idea I just kinda thought of was to color match the valve cover to the rest of my car. Which I want to make dark red.
