Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Yep, one rainy day I polished the edges and then coated with Cerakote.

Could you tell me exactly how you did this? You can PM me if you’d like. Thanks.

I *really* like it. Puts the motor more visual into my motor cycle.
That being said- it was a LOT of work to strip the black off and hand brush the finish- yet to buy a new silver valve cover and caps is $$$.

If you are patient- what I suggest is to load the Ebay app on your phone, and set up a search alert for 'CB1100 cover'. It will notify you when one is listed. I say cover instead of valve because you may get some overseas bloke that calls it a rocker cover instead of a valve cover.
That is a great way to save money. In fact I just bought the passenger peg mounts in silver an hour ago this way for less than 1/2 the cost of new.
