I haven't done one of the coil pack covers, they would probably polish up funny since they are extruded, that usually leaves and odd grain structure, but I could give it a shot. Or I could do it black wrinkle to match, which I think would look best, with polished stainless hardware I'd supply if needed.

I have two here, let me spray one when I do the other cover and see how it comes out. I'll figure out what it will cost to add the cover, painted, and bolts and post it here.

If you wanted to add the center cover, painted black with polished bolts, add $45. That's a steal as the covers alone are hard to find cheap, I happen to have a spare. So $165 for the whole setup, i'll refund you $60 on return of a good core valve cover and coil cover. LMK.

I did one, posted it up for sale for months and nobody bought it, so I installed it on my ex gf's car and sold her stock one. I'm not paying for another core, if you want to send one then i'll paint it. The L61/LE5 ones I've done came out great, just people don't want them.

No clear coat, would ruin the texture of the wrinkle.

Yeah, that paint is rated to at least 350 degrees, the valve cover is never going to go much over 200, as it is all aluminum, will disperse the heat into the block and is basically internally oil cooled, oil temps will never exceed coolant temps by much more than 10-20 degrees as they are coolant cooled.
