Top paint job :thumb: :thumb: You should have dropped the rear part of the exhaust before painting. Fitted tail pipe blacking plates, that way you could have painted the infill panels as well  :eek:

I have the matching air cleaner top to match those valve covers if you want it. I will have to look for it but I do have one.
