Man I can just stair at that blue water drop one all day. But I like the crome green one too but only if in blue.

OK, gimmie some time to crunch some numbers, and I will work on giving you the best price we can afford. I will do my best not to make a ton of money off you guys. Call it a Hondaclub discount. I do, however, still need to pay for paint and materials.

We're talking about a DOHC valve cover, right? And are you after a price on the chrome material, or the water drop? I can do both in either color.

I should be caught up by the weekend. Once I measure one of my SOHC covers, I"ll shoot you a price for the standard blue with water drop, and I'll shoot you a price for the chrome blue with water drop.

Thanks for your patients!

OK, my dimensions I'm getting are:
16.5 inches long (pass-driver side)
abour 4 inches tall at the tallest point
6inches deep (front to rear)

That gives me about 215 square inches.

Keep in mind that the process includes:
-bead blast/media blast (depending)
-and acid base cleaning
-paint (any color you want just provide a paint code)
-image (in your case water drops)
-clear coat (usually 2.5 coats)

I am gonna say usually I would ask $250 for this, gimmie $200 and we'll call it even.

Let me know and I"ll give you the address to send to.

Thanks.

I had some serous stuff come up with my car and I'm going to need to focus my $$$ on getting it fixed. So it will be a while before I'm able to do this. But the price sounds good so I'll be in touch.

We just did a set of Cavalier taillights in Carbon Fiber. The Chevy emblem in the middle is yellow to match the car. I'll get pics up once the clear coat is buffed out!

We've actually got a new clearcoat that I think we're gonna like. The guy that we buy it from sprayed a piece of aluminum, then beat the piss out of it with a metal ruler. Didn't chip, crack, or anything. Seems like real nice stuff.

It's apprx $.70-$.90 a sqaure inch.

At this point in time, I don't have the capability to do a car. My water tank can do bumpers, hoods, trunk lids, etc. That is about the biggest stuff. I couldn't do a whole car yet. Maybe someday.
