Yes at first i was going to paint gold betwen the fins since stock tin covers was gold

1320 posts? :o

I vote no gold. The birds really stand out on their own. Did I mention how awesome they look?
-
Yes Doug i think i skip the gold .... Yes i think you mentioned that :D
I'm glad the birds don't got lost in shipping and ended up on some truck or something ;)
I did this in the 80s sometime on some covers that had a square patch where i mounted
the bird. So there was polished aluminium between the bird and the gold paint.
But here where the flanges is right up to the bird i think no paint look better

Hate to tell you this Heo but your valve cover design is going to get stolen. :)
They look great.

To be honest i saw that on a 427 with chromed valvecovers and a Bird sticker in the mid 70s and it
stuck to my memory
