Default valve covers...

went ahead and painted them this weekend as well as my throttle body. i figured since the procharger goes on next week, it would probably be a little harder to access them later.

*side note...* Thank you Taco Bill. It was easy and self explanatory but i felt a little more confident after reading his write up.

Looks good, real good.
That is the next thing on my to do list. Thinking of either the Blue like yours or Black, can't decide.

Gotta love the new ford blue...

TWOKOOL, don't paint them black, the blue looks amazing against our engine bays.

+1...if you do black, it will blend with the intake manifold, vacuum hoses, coil packs, etc. i think the blue really stands out...even better against all that polished plumbing going in next week...lol

Looks great! How long did it take to remove and replace the valve covers?

Valve covers look good, but not too sure if I dig the throttle body being blue
