Default Polished Valve Covers

I was thinking of switching my valve covers for polished valve covers. Jeremy at Hardkore Metal Finishing did a set in polish while I was at his shop and the work was still in the process of polishing them. The polishing isn't completed, but these look killer. When they do complete them they have a clear coat shot to maintain the shine.
So here's a place in San Diego (El Cajon) where you can go to have this done.

They look great. I have valve covers on my to do list but cant decide if I want red to match my red paint, polished to match my UPR polished caps or black to match the Saleen blower. These have me leaning towards polished at this time.

Mine are epoxy coated black and Hardkore Metal Finishing did them. They came out great and they also did my CAI tube and front calipers.
