    Thanks drmikey ,
    I painted my valve covers with the same paint, VHT SP240 and after got into the oven for wrinkle paint.
    This paint is a little clearer tone than the original intake manifold cover NSX-R 2002 is more purple for that reason I asked.

    Engine back in after clutch and flywheel change, seals, baffled sump, clearances, rocker cover refurb and general clean up. Now ready for summer!
