Post pics of cylinder head (engine) covers here

I know folks have posted some incredible pics of custom cylinder head covers. I remember seeing some carbon covers (someday!) ...and some real fancy paint jobs.

Since I'm down in Tampa, I wanted something that said TROPICAL ...and wanted to keep the blue theme of my Blazing Blue beauty. So I tried my hand at painting a simple scene ...a moonlit tropical night. I'm not an artist (as you can see :) ...but it makes me smile every time I pop the hood:



OK, so let's see what other folks have done. Let's replace some of those lost pics!

I like how guys made use of the shapes on the cover for your artwork. Really clever. Also I was unaware that pandas like burgers. You learn something everyday.

Glad I was able to offer something back to the community!
I had a blast seeing the entries from different Yaris owners.

I've owned 13 cars(1 bomb for each) the 9913 is the last 4#s in my vin, and the jaws and tiger are from the AVG Flying Tigers defended Burma and China with their shark-faced P-40 Tomahawks in the opening months of the Pacific War, December 1941 - July 1942.
