**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.
B16 done in wrinkle black
D15 in gunmetal non wrinkle
Here is another B16 one I just got to work on. We'll see how it turns out.
Here is is drying up. There is some shitty lighting in my room sorry.
Not a valve cover, but a good picture of the actual wrinkle on my 360
Just done 7/29/08. Spruced up the "new" EK valve cover. Color came out brighter than I though. Gunmetal metallic.

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
