    Different color valve covers

    I am searching for valve covers and hopefully they come in other colors than black and/or I can just buy a black and paint it myself.

    Anyhow, I did a search and could not find an sites that sell stock-like H23/F22b valve covers. Anyone? Thanks.

    BTW, for those that know me, I'm not one for appearance mods much. This is not for this purpose soley, but that I NEED one. The valve cover that came with a head I bought was fractured/cracked bad, so I need to replace it obviously and I may as well make it match the silver exterior cb7, blue engine bay color theme I will have going on.

        Aero3685: I did not find any on Ebay, found a couple on classifieds in forums...PMed people, awaiting to hear back.

        Rebels: Sweet man, I might hit up this person when I find a valve cover. I think a dark grey color would a nice contrast to the NGK blue wires I'll get.

          these threads may be of some service to you, once you decide whether to replace the current cover, or fix the current cover:

            I have two F22B valve covers-polished and flat black, that I might be willing to sell or trade, depending on the offer. Let me know.

            Also I dont think they make aftermarket covers for the H23/F22B, so buying a used OEM one is the only way

                I may be interested once I get a H23 valve cover first...seems stock is the only way to go.

                      i am on the proces of doing mine. i striped the paint with paint remover(airplane one) and it clean it up and didn't stick that well.
                      so now they tell me i got to sand it donw a little bit. so after u strip the paint strip it with a 600 grit paper. that is what i am about to do. but now with school and all i haven't done anything lmao. tonight i will put the paint remover. tomorrow will take everything out then clean it. then sand it. hopefully i be done in a week.

                        im not sure what kind of paint you used, but i didnt sand at all. i stripped the original paint and resprayed right away. so sanding or prep of any kind.

                            HF81 .. I have one for sale .. its a yellow powder coat with the Honda logo shaved to shine ..

                            It's not a *wrinkle* coat however, instead it's a very smooth powder coat. I can get an image up
                            by tomorrow if you haven't found one yet ..

                            Dont know the exact yellow .. I just call it *spark plug wire yellow* ... lol

                            LMK ..
