Default Valve Covers

Anyone have pictures of there chrome valve covers or anything else they did like paint them etc. I need to replace my gaskets and im thinking about sanding them down and painting them black. Im trying to get ideas of what’s been done and what I can do. Also anyone paint the plate that goes over the covers?

There is a link on here somewhere where someone is selling some really good looking ones. Machines and anadized aluminum I believe, might even be listed a Genos'.

Amwise over on 4btswaps makes some pretty nice 4bt valve covers, I bet if someone asked he could make 6bt covers pretty easy.
