Question Polished Aluminum VAlve Covers?

Does anyone know where I could find polished or brushed aluminum valve covers for our trucks. I thought there was a place mentioned here before but I can't seem to find any info. I'm looking to put them on my 00' Harley and 03' Lightning if there is anything good available. Thanks in advance.

Cool

HI!... Just remember that the 5.4/4.6 *WINDSOR* built engines have more valve cover bolts than the *ROMEO* built engines. So in other words if you buy after market valve covers designed for a ROMEO built engine they WILL NOT fit on the 5.4 head!!!!!!!

Id get the brushed, easier maintenance...Polished is nice until you get some scapes on them then it will ruin your day....

The Bullitman covers are the ones too go for.
Our club just did a group purchase on about a dozen sets or so and they are verry nice indeed and a lot cheaper than any thing else posted on here so far.
SEE YA !!
He is a great vendor.
