Engine Cover Problems

It's weird the letters/numbers are fading off.

What should I do?

Discard them or send them off for repaint or ?

To those of you who sent your Covers off to Corvette Mods in Texas to have painted the color of carbon fiber -- was it worth it ?

They are Hydro Dipped / carbon fiber look. I had mine done and worth the money.
It takes about 8 eight weeks for completion.

Paul at Corvettemods.com no longer offers this service.

Took about two days to get an answer.

Paul did not offer a reason why they stopped this service.

It's called hydro dipping
There are tons of places that do it
Even kits to do it your self

Google is our friend

No kidding? I just received mine from them roughly two months ago. Hopefully someone else will provide the service. I definitely like mine.
That said another option would be some custom valve covers instead.

This is what I did on my Z06. Katech valve covers with Katech coil relocation kit and longer MSD plug wires.
