Kaw-boy 900 Your valvecover tured out supernice!  i did the same on my bike this winter but did nor get it 100 finished The cover on my bike had some dents and scratches so i decided to Like slimjim z1bebe mention to use finer and finer grit to sand and polish out the cover. here are some picks did not have time to do finish it but will next winter.
