B---h! it's all about the rising sun!
i'm sure that would look awesome if he had more white/red in the engine bay, but i do like the idea of having actual art on the valve cover

Paint really won't last. Powder is the only way to go. ESP' with his heat sheild off, it will peel quickly.

That's what I thought! Good idea (if it's high temp). Not great execution. That's too many rays for the Japanese flag.
