I had some spare time.....

[slhazy]

Since i am all done school for the Holidays, i decided to make use of my time,
My valve cover seal was leaking a little bit, and once i had the valve cover i figured why not have a little fun. So here's the pics from my wrinkle painted black valve cover.




As it looked when it came off the car


Cleaned it up really good/gave it a light sanding


All Taped up



Finished painting



Its all done! Now just to polish the intake manifold...
Cheers

Re: I had some spare time.....

Looks good! Put it on! LOL. What engine code? Is that valve cover interchangeable with AWP?

I did some fiddling around too.. Well I was bored one day and did this when it was -20 outside..

Re: I had some spare time.....

hey, is that heat shield to keep cool winter air off the manifold? I have never seen one before...

I had that same 034 Coil cover on my A4.. looked good! Calgary Autoworks has them in stock..

Re: I had some spare time.....

They cost like $30... from 034motorsport.com.. It's to protect the coil pack harness wires.. Although I think it's mostly cosmetic.. I too have the bolt down coil packs.. But I have a valve cover leak so I need to fix that first before being able to put them on.. .. Sorry for the thread jack.

Re: I had some spare time.....

naa naa you didnt jack my thread, that was the same problem i was having to begin with, i had oil sitting on top of my spark plugs, and in with my coil packs :( That would be what started all this. But tomorrow it should be back up and running good as new
