valve cover installation

I was planning on cleaning and painting my covers myself. If it turns out poor then I'll buy pre-painted ones.
I just saw this thread but have a nice steip-by-step from another site saved. Sorry I didn't see this earlier

Not hard at all. I was surprised when I did the install. Thanks alot for all the information. I may take the stock set and have them painted and air brushed. Me and the wife have spoken about it but not made our minds up yet.
