Default Wrinkle blue valve covers?

Ok so i wanna do something with the valve covers. My car is white first of all, and i dont wanna do chrome i think its too much bling for my tastes and pain in the butt to keep clean. So i was thinking about wrinkle blue.. kinda to keep it on the lines of the for heritage.

But im open to opinions and pictures if you guys have em.

Thanks in advance

I currently have a white Mustang GT. I chose to go Red with most things and I will hold true to that when I do my valve covers. i plan to have them done in the next month.

Sorry the rad cover isn't in production...

RoushGT05, I knew exactly what you were talking about when you said it. That's where I wanted to go also, but it was just going to be to much trouble. I got my extra set of valve covers from a friend that has swapped out for some chrome ones.

Well ive got a guy here that does powdercoating locally, so it shouldnt be too much trouble to get them done and if i can find a spare set ill be in business and if i dont like it i can try another route.

Thanks for the help so far.

You'll have to let us know how it turns out.
