So the e28 got some attention in the last few days.
Started with a nice valve adjustment:

The went to refinish the valve cover:
First full coat of wrinkle paint

After 3 extra coats to make it nice and wrinkly and scraping the raised portions with a razor

Then the final product renstalled with painted engine brackets and intake after sanding the raised portions with 220grit

Also swapped the shitty dual 6"s in the trunk for a nice 10". Stereo is now 100% tuned and balanced and sounds just right without that ghetto booming bass.
Overall, Matt is one happy guy!!! Now if only my throwout bearing would shut up......
