Very nice...personally, I'd prefer them in silver or black, but that's just because I have a black truck. If you do leave the coils on the valve covers, I'd leave the coils black to offset the red, just my opinion.

I would like to find some but I was having trouble locating a set. Even if they're not identical. Can you give me any pointers? all I found was stock or welded aluminum.

I found the Valve Covers on eBay. They are really nice. The rails are Billet and the body is hand tigged aluminum. (Search LS1 Valve Covers) I did the paint and decals. Tomorrow the motor comes out and when it go's back in it will look close to this. I really like the contrast in Chevy Orange and Natural Aluminum.

Nice Covers. I like the chevy orange as well. I don't think you will see your stickers with the coils on there though.
