Painted Engine Valve Cover: Round 2

[m911gt]

Winters in Wisconsin cause me to do just about anything to subside my boredom so the other day, I decided to start off the new color scheme for my car. I decided that I'm going to go black and red on everything to match the TRD logo and Momo acc's.

Yesterday I painted my valve cover for the second time, this time I actually got creative. It isn't really near professional quality, but for only using a single piece of tape it turned out alright. The pictures make the paint look a bit orange, but in fact it is red.

The Japanese characters on the front of the cover translate to "Ambition." My Yaris is a constant reminder of my work ethic; I have never wanted something so bad and I worked my ass off to be able to get it. Like any modification, I believe our cars should represent our personalities.

Here are a few before and after pictures.
