    I just saw one on ebay last night. I had to order one myself a month back (ebay) when I got a little carried away with tightening mine down on my SH. Ended up with a hairline crack across the right rear top edge.

    I don't worry too much about the shine since I end up painting them black.

      HeHe, I did crack my left rear cover a couple years ago, I JB Welded it and ran it for a year before I found one on EBay for 6 bucks. It was a bit rough, but after some wire wheeling, working it with that green 3M scouring pad, then took it to the polishing wheel, it turned out preety shiny. I think I still have my old one you can have for shipping cost it you like. I am in Seattle.

            I sold a bad to the bone black krinkle polished highlight NOS black Maxim 1100 valve cover on eBay a while back, along with a NOS cam chain tensioner and some other NOS items, wishing I had kept them now!
