Gen 3 (Maybe 4) Painted Valve Cover for Sale with Pics

Hey guys,

Its been awhile that this project has been sitting on my workbench so I finally decided to finish it up and sell it. I bought it as a replacement valve cover for a cracked one on a Gen4 only to discover that while it fit, the PCV valve interfered with something on the Gen4 intake. This will definitely fit a Gen3, but I'm not sure about the Gen4s (there may be some years it fit depending on the intake).

I have to say, its not my best work. Most of the thing came out really, really good except for one place on the front where the paint went on a little uneven in thickness, and theres one chip in the paint because it was on my workbench so long something must have fallen on it. Because of that, I only want to get what I paid for the valve cover in the first place ($30). I'm not even factoring in the hours of labor I put into painting this.

I stripped the whole thing down with a wire wheel and degreased/desludged as much of it as I could, primered it, sanded it, primered again, and painted with 3 coats of flat black. Honestly, I think it looks pretty nice, but I don't want to disappoint anyone so I'm not asking much for it.

If no one wants to pick it up on here (or preferably locally) I suppose I'll put it up on ebay for whatever I can get for it.

Anyway, here are the pics, thanks for looking! BTW, I'm in West Palm Beach, FL.

Yes its for the 5SFE. Shipping I'm not really sure on. I listed it on ebay with some real high shipping just because I didn't know how much it was going to be, but if I sell it to someone here rather than ebay I'll quote you the actual shipping.

USPS has a bunch of those flat rate boxes, not sure if I could get it to fit in any of those. I'd guess the actual shipping would be around $12, most places online charge about 20.
