Default Custom 24V Valve Covers

Well I'm starting to dress up the motor a little and was doing a little searching on the forums and found some nice work, but then I remembered about these covers at Genos. Does 140 bucks sound like a fair price for the red powdercoated valve cover? Do any of our vendors carry these also?

Here is a link: CAST ALUMINUM OEM VALVE COVER (RED) - (98.5-02, 24V) DODGE-Dodge Cummins and Ford Power Stroke Diesel Truck Accessories - Geno's Garage



If yall have some pics toss them up.

I like it because it doesnt say Dodge on it.

Heres another source:

They also have them in cast aluminum if the red doesnt work for you.

140 IMO sounds quite fair.. but Ive never bought any Cummins Valve covers.. I think that red one looks slick for sure..
