You could do the same with some elbow grease and engine bay cleaner, and nice new... everythings... and.... hell just buy a newer 1UZ-FE and polish and paint things pretty.

Can you say whoaaaa buddy, slow that little sedan down... You'll hurt someone. Unless.... it's in a Trueno, than I'd probably freak out and urinate myself driving down the street. Ripping and roaring.

Turn signals look to be in a strange location - it would probably make more sense if I saw the entire vehicle though.

That's pretty clean.
I used to be into German Opels, oh, twenty some years ago; the valve cover on those cars looks EXACTLY like the intake manifolds on our 1uzfe.
I used satin black from a spray can.
