What your talking about is not the Valve Cover, your talking about the spark plug cover, and they do make 2 versions of it. DG motorsports makes one and it pwns the other version, DG's is a replacement and the other isn't. I bought the DG one and love it.

i removed the valve cover, not wire cover. and i painted it, not hard. so i suggest you do the same.

ah that sucks. they need to come out with some. im not a full member yet and havent reached the posting limit of 15 so i cant link or post or anything. um. try ebay and search "honda sohc cover" it will show you what i mean. if i cant find that then i will definately paint my wire cover when i get some time! thanks guys!

i had to do it myself--unfortunantly you have to do it yourself too
ps...im changing it from ricey blue to maybe a black, flat black, gunmetal, or wrinkle black

i think the blue is fine, its the wire cover that looks choppy. just put a stock one back and it'll look clean.
