you don't see the "AGE" (of 4 AGE) peeking out underneath the bimmer cover? :P

I also really like Haru's take on his valve covers:

For years I have been running wrinkle red covers with a wrinkle black valley cover and polished lettering on all my 4A-GE's. The latest one also has the PCV shaved off the intake side and relocated to the back of the head. :mrgreen:
