I was look to see if anyone has painted valve covers one color and then put lettering on top of that then went over the whole thing with vht wrinkle paint and it turn out good. I like the older Corvette valve covers that has the old scroll Chevrolet on it. That’s what I was thinking of trying just wanted to see if some on has tryed something like that?

Not quite what you had in mind but, these are old Corvette style. I painted the top orange then ground off the ribs
