I couldn't have a FORD Festiva with a Mazda cover now could I?

[25Horseplay]

Thats the way it SHOULD be!!!!!

[batstiva]

Kinda wondered how long you were going to put up with that.

Looks good, Matt

I'm so mad right now that I'm probably going to spontaneously combust.

[EVOGUN]

That valve cover needs something, ahh.. A grinder!

Thanks :wink:

[htchbck]

Is it powder coated? If so, what did you do for the Ford emblem and DOCH 16 valves?

Looks like Matt just sanded down the letter's so the aluminum shows.

Krylon krinkle coat. Sand down the ford and the DOHC emblem 1st using some rough sandpaper and a block. It is not flat at all to start with. Then paint and when dry resand the letters.
