Bought a set of shiny valve covers from ebay for $84. They do look nice, and they are taller than stock, but they were biggest PITA to install with my 1.6 RR. Reason- lots of gutting from inside needed to be done to clear the rockers. It's the same sh*t as with stock ones where you have to gut them in order to fit 1.6 RR, just ebay's valve cover are made from stronger material and it's hard to gut them. Unless you have a grinding shop in your garage, stay away from them. By more expensive ones and save some time. They do look nice when installed though
