sorry man.. my bad.. i did not notice the valve covers.. very sweet indeed! I thought you were refering to the end caps on the intake

Do those covers overlay the existing OEM cover.. or do they replace the existing OEM cover?

 

I think he meant the fact that the nipples that hose slips onto wasn't masked off... best not to paint that part...

 

They replace OEM, it is a coating similar to dip-tech I am pretty sure.

 

pretty cool and not a bad price, thats like OEMish price. someone needs to make some metal ones now.

 

^ I looked into that route to have some sheet metal ones created.... Lets just say I stuck with oem the price tag was high.

 

from the way I read it, it's not new covers... it's just the coating... I presume you give them your covers and they have them coated - or you can buy covers from them, but as stated on there site, price does not include covers unless otherwise noted - the only "noted" is valve cover coating...

^ ya after a reread I agree with you. I am sure GTM is marking it up. Go thru the source
http://www.dip-tech.net/

 

Well that sucks. I wish a company would just mass produce one that was not plastic for a decent price.

 

^You send in your covers, they do the work and send them back to you. I've seen their work in person...very nice quality.

Edit...I think the ones I've seen are straight from http://www.dip-tech.net/ and not GTM.

 

wow crazy stuff now i have to read up on how this works

 

there was a thread about someone making them... I think it fizzled...

They always think they have "the answer" and the next big idea... too often it fizzles...

 

lots of fizzing occurs on driver haha. How many interest threads have just slipped away .....

I'm just going to have to start talking to people and un-fizzing the fizzing.

 

ohhh icic, well, good think i masked those off for mine

 

with regard to the fluid eating the paint, it looks like you installed them already so i would just keep an eye on it for the next few days. probably won't be an issue.

for anyone else planning to do this, you should just mask off the nipples on the bottom. you can't see them anyway. also, mask off a window so you can check the fluid level.

good job, btw

 

yea, i masked windows but guess i'll repaint the PS tank if things get bad
