I experimented a little bit. See if you can notice whats not there anymore. Im not a big fan on how the aluminum came out so Ill probably be stripping it off and powdercoating it. anyways heres a pic. ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v332/redlinegsr94/vc.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v332/redlinegsr94/vc.jpg) ---

Yea ive done that a few times. We did a few b16’s into civics and we stripped them. Sand blasted them and clear coated a few or just painted a few. Looks better without the vtec. More like a sleeper ---

More like a sleeper Im just waiting for some random dumbass to come up to my car while I have my hood up and tell me its a good thing I turboed a LS because vtec is bad for turbos. Being as I have no vtec badges on my car and now no VTEC valve cover. ---
