Default Cheap valve cover ??.....??

Anyone know where i can get some cheap valve covers, preferably under 75 $ for a pair. I'd like to stick on some better looking ones than stock. And i dont have time to get them powder coated. Any good sites ?

What do i do about the filler neck ?
Most local parts stores should have an adapter which will plug into the VC and will have an hose nipple for the vc/tb hose.


Personally, I would hit the j/y's for a set of cast aluminum vc's.
ebay will have them too.
I think they look better than any of the aftermarket units.
But then I think that understated parts are more pleasing to the eye.

My thoughts,
jason
