Sinister with style
I was sick of looking at my timing cover so it had to go. It was painted before and the paint turned a greenish color which looked like hell so I picked up a second cover and had it powder coated.
Old one
And here's the powder coated one.
I wasn't messing with removing the cam covers or removing the crossover tube and coolant to do this job so I left them all installed and managed to complete it within 2 hours working around them.
I tried to post a install thread, but the character limit prevented me so Ill just link it so you can use it as a reference should anyone wanna attempt this themselves.

The final product is a nice smooth clean look. I didn't go with the polished chrome look because of the difficulty of having to polish and clean it should it become oxidized or dirty. I spend way too much time as it is polishing so having to remove the belt and pulleys just to clean is where I draw the line.
