ok so i have to go now....but i'll spill the beans

here's the truth. the valve cover is off a sc430. they come black on silver on black and the gs comes silver on silver on black. which one do you'll like better?

THE GS OEM ONE

OR THE SC430 OEM ONE

saw the above picture when i saw it i knew i liked it better :P but what you'll think

I noticed the cover was different with the black on the sides, but i was thinking your was a 03 and thought maybe they looked different or something..

I like the stock one better, the black stuff is cool but i like the all silver.

Especially since your car is black, the SC cover blends in much better.

Its hard to tell both covers look good. I'm partial to the silver only because it breaks up all the black in the engine. Now instead of the SC cover maybe some CF on the cover and engine pieces.. that would look hot.. Clean 430..
