Bet they do not even show up on your caove. They are both silver in color. I ordered the pair from Moss. When I went to install, one worked fine and the other one seperated when I started peeling the backing off. Might want to order spares
That looks really nice. I have the Aluminum Ribbed one that you see everywhere. That is really unique, I like it. There are different stickers for different years. I have seen sets on Ebay, Vicky Brit has a whole page devoted to them in their catalog. Moss sells them but I don't recall pictures of them like Vicky Brit. I bought a couple of sets from VB, I can't tell you about the quality because I haven't installed them yet. I can say that they look really nice.
You did the thermostat cover too? How much did that cost? It is really nice, It looks like real metal in the picture.
Can't see it from here. The early cars had two aluminum plates riveted on, then went to one plate and one sticker, then two stickers, then just one, then just the BL sticker.
Looks like a James Dandy. It should stay that way for a while!!!
I had a sticker custom made for me by a guy I know who does that kind of work... hooked me up with appropriate heat-resistant vinyl, and made whatever I wanted.... I had one done that's sorta like the radio blanking plate. Actually, i set it up so that the overall sticker was appropriately sized for the valve cover, then used the positive (the cut out part) as a window sticker, and the negative on the valve cover. I have pictures somewhere.
Well , I didn't do the thermo. cover , its just painted . The best thing about powdercoating the valve cover was , it was FREE !! Where I work they have a kit in the maint. shop and a huge oven so , one of the guys did it for me . I try and think of what I can do next !
Man there's no end to possibilities. I suggest the heater box, pedal box and cover should be next in line. It does look mighty fine!
