Default My latest valve cover, McHonda style.

All she needs is some curing time, some letter filing and some clear. No, it's not mine (I did paint it though) but I figured some of you here would get a kick out of it.

Customer had an idea of what he wanted (the hamburgler) and I took it and ran. Thanks for all of the kind words, everyone.

Depends. This one was 2 bills due to the complicated graphics/time. On average, I usually charge 150-300 depending on what the customer wants done. If I have to source the cover itself, of course that's added to the price. Most folks bring me a cover/core unless they've got a KA Nissan.
