how the **** am I the tool when you're the ******* dipshit who thinks he's safe behind his nice little computer and can talk **** about things that happen to other people and not him. too bad i'm not a rich bastard like you are and can't afford winter tires cause hey guess what!?! its ******* oklahoma *******!!! this is the ONE winter we've gotten snow. i guess your retarded little eyes couldn't read where i said "i got around fine on these tires all day". ALL DAY as in that very same day. i guess they also happened to ******* miss where i said "I BLACKED THE **** OUT", you dumb ****. you really think i'd be going 70 in a damn 35 with packed down snow and ice on the road. no, sorry, i'm not a ******* like you are and don't put peoples lives in danger on purpose. could have hurt someone?? are you ******* kidding?? it was 5 in the damn morning, back road..where i live. NO ONE IS AROUND. i see maaaybe three people a day on that road. now shut your ******* mouth ***** and think before you speak. maybe next time you won't sound like a god damn idiot.
It would be cool if more of you guys would black out.. It would boost business for GM...
This is a Honda valve cover me and a buddy did in autobody, what do you guys think? its supposed to be like a woodgrain finish, but kinda came out more marbled on one side, but i think it looks pretty badass. Makes me think what I can do to mine. I would do this to mine but I would have to tint it another color, maybe yellow and black. that would be pretty sick
I know... my cold-side piping was actually covered in hard packed snow. 
My left inner fenderwell was acting like an ice box.
It all drifted in there after we got beat with snow over the weekend.

to do woodgrain, you lay a base color, on this valve cover, we put silver high temp spray bomb, then we spray regular black basecoat on it, while its wet take a piece of clear plastic food wrap (no joke) and put it on the surface, use the paint gun to blow air at the surface, peel it off, then spray the next side, apply clear splastic wrap on surface, blow air, peel off, etc.
Then youll have black with a bunch of swirls and **** in it from the clear plastic wrap. Choose a color candy you want as a top coat, on that honda its just a transparent red, mix some candy in with the clearcoat, clear it, and thats it. We used Venom Art fluid on this in case your looking to do it. put on as much colored clear till your happy with the look. We did a computer like this as well.

My 2006 Cobalt SS/SC Underhood
How do I upload a pic here to show or do they all have to be hosted elsewheres? I assume it would take alot of server space if we uploaded direct.....just asking to make sure and in the meantime I will find a spot to upload an underhood pic.

As of right now my engine bay is bone stock on my '09 SS/TC. My valve cover, especially after this winter, is getting a bit of white corrosion on it. In fact, there were signs of this when I picked it up new from the dealer. How do you guys clean and keep these covers clean without painting them?
and some cleaner.
