You should be able to get a second hand Evo 7 valve cover in places where the 7 was officially sold, e.g Japan, HK , UK.

Check the ebay sites, or if you want check local second had parts website.

I seen some at scrap yards here in HK, they are around USD $100.

Well I decided on the shaved look. Just got it back from the powder coater. Got it done at Bonehead performance. Very nice people. Here is the picture of it. Unfortunately my picture doesnt do the color justice. Looks awesome in person.


This is more of what the color looks like
