Question Powder-Coating Valve Covers...

Alright, I have some serious powder-coating connectionz (girlfriend's dad! ) Anywho, I'd like to powder-coat my valve cover bright yellow, but I dont know what it is made of. I mean, when you knock it with a wrench or somethin' it doesn't sound like anything metallic, and if you dont know you can only powder-coat metal (aluminum, cast-iron, etc.). Can someone please help me out with the 'material' the valve cover is made out of?

Thanks,
Matt

What year Neon is it?? The valve cover should be metal. It may not feel like it because of the finish it already has on it. My fiance has a SOHC Neon which also has a metal valve cover. He stripped the finishoff of it to go for the "bare metal" look.

Yep it can be done. Check out the forums on www.neons.org too. Several people on there have had their v-covers done. Also a good information source for Neon specific problems/help/whatever.
