Default **Doing wrinkle/flat valve covers**

Well I bought the stuff to redo the valve covers on both Del Sol's and lude. I have plenty left over so if anyone wants theirs done I'll do it for $25 you cover shipping. It took me about 4-5hr's to do each not including drying times.

Here are a few before and afters.

10 bucks isn't worth your time. You're not a 7 year old chinese girl.

If anyone needs it done let me know so I know not to take down my little mock paint booth. I have two more to do already. If you want any other colors I can do that. I got a good deal and bought a bit too much stripper lol

Care to share some info? How do you sand the raised parts down without fear of scuffing the rest? I tried and fucked up.
