That looks awesome right there
If the grey was a couple shades darker like the Mugen Valve Cover for B-Series motors, it would be sex.

The stock valve cover will begin to turn a nasty shade of grey when you start to sand it. It is impossible to get the brushed aluminum look on it....cast aluminum doesnt look good.....so dont do it.
