I have this in my build also but i wanted to make a showcase just for this piece of my car because it is very special to me.

This valve cover i did in memory of my mom who passed away due to lung cancer last April and i have been building my current eg hatch in here memory so i figured i would make it known by doing the valve cover up for her, since a lot of the time i have put into the car is in the engine bay.

also i would like to give a big thanks to my friend T.L. Webb for the letter layout and airbrushing on the valve cover. and thanks to Zac for the valve cover.
