Valve Cover refinish Ottawa...

I'd like to get my valve cover done.
nothing crazy artistic, however profesionally worked on.

make the "bmw" letter and line pop...perhaps another color other than black too.

any recomendations?

I recommend DIY. Valve cover is easy and a lot of fun. Take a trip to the local CT and get inspired by some colors or textures in the paint department, or stroll in some threads with valve cover paint jobs.

I used Harley Davidson texture black made for engines on their bikes; its held up really well.
