hi guys
I swapped 2 sets of my bushes with a ebayer who goes my the name sobebum for a refurbished black and polished valve cover. a word of warning to everybody else DO NOT BUY ONE FROM HIM . I don't want this to sound like I'm a bad sport but the item I received was a 3/10 if that. badly cleaned ,sprayed with cheap paint and his polished lettering was rough sanding . he sells them for about $100 a time and I reckon if you spent 20 mins on your own one it would turn out better. I 'm sorry if I seem as though I'm a bad buyer but I hate being ripped off. just trying to pass on my experience

I am also selling wrinkle black/polished big six valve covers on eBay for about a $100 each but mine are professionally cleaned & powdercoated ($45/per cover)and are no comparison. So, please don't confuse these covers with his. John
