On this episode of the Miata build we will be repainting my beat up valve cover.
The paint has been flaking off for a long time now and its a huge eye sore in the engine bay. I decided to go with a matte gray finish so I went with Ford Gray from Duplicolor.
I’m so glad I did because it made the engine bay look so much better.
I also replaced the valve cover and resealed the cam caps.
I hope this video gives you the confidence to do it yourself too!
