Finally a chance to properly whore mine out

First thing to point out - it's smoothed, there are none of the casting notches around the base. It's subtle and nobody ever notices...but *I* know it's smoothed...

Ford RS Green (it has a gold metallic in the lacquer) and Spoon Plug Cover.

You need contrast like these! This valve cover in white with a black cover in a GPW car wouldn't look as good.
You did a fine job with this. This cover would go well with my GPW and gold Volks.

Little things I know, but to me it's these little details that make the difference...why wouldn't you get rid of those little cast points?



ugly!
