need help deciding

Hey guys....I'm about to get my valve cover custom painted....I'm looking for some good ideas. Here are some examples of the guys work.....these are his images of some of the work he has done.

I was thinking of getting mine done with the moster drink logo but I think the green would not look right in the engine bay of a HRP Si.

So any ideas???

I won't be a tool and hate on anything like that - but the logo thing is a little odd if you aren't getting paid for it. Solid is always better imo. I never logo anything, as eventually the brand will be uncool for some reason and you will be stuck with a high priced paint job. When that happens, you'll be keeping that hood latched up tight!

I wouldn't suggest a logo either, but a nice paint job would be cool. I wouldn't go with a solid color cause you should make it a little more personal than that. Make it something you like, but not a brand name or company logo.

Yeah...perhaps I'll see if he can do a fade effect.

get a brand of part you like. If you are into greddy do that or Skunk2. that way its more car themed. I dont like the idea at all but those are some ideas.
