Does anyone know of a company that sells powder-coated valve covers for the KA such as MUGAN does for Honda??

[ATTACH]481[/ATTACH]

I’m looking for one that resembles the grey one in the picture I posted.

If this product does not exist does anyone know of a good powder-coater or Iodizer in the Halton region that does it??? Any help would be great!

Thanks.

afaik there are no readily available aftermarket valve covers for SR/KA etc.

it would be an awesome product though, i had it looked at a couple years ago and yeah it can be done but you gotta be willing to run a few hundred off the bat. not my cup of tea.

If you have a KA-E i have seen people modify those valve covers pretty extensively.

Since there is nothing available does anyone have the ability to powerdercoat or Iodize me one???

If possible I would prefer them to be located in the Halton region (Oakville, Burlington, Mississauga).

Thanks

Kitchener is still to far for me…It’s not a distance issue as much as its a time issue. I simply dont have time to trek it down and back.

wow… I should start doing that considering what he charges…

I could go buy KA covers from the junkyard @ $10-$20 a pop, Coat them (normally its $50) be @ $60-$70 max and then sell them on ebay for $100+

Good Idea…
