: Powdercoated EVO X Valve Cover Exchange Program
JNZTuning 05-18-2009, 09:48 PM We have received numerous PM's and emails if we have a EVO X valve cover for core exchange purposes like we do with the DSM's and Galant VR-4.
We are highly considering doing this, but would like to get a list of those organized on the site who are serious about it. We understand that your EVO X is your primary mode of transportation for many of you out there.
EVO X valve cover is rather pricey, so our core deposit will be $200, to cover any damages etc. This will be refunded to the customer once we have a chance to inspect their valve cover for scrapes, cracks etc.
Please start a list below if interested:

Storm_trooper 05-18-2009, 10:01 PM just to clarify for my self and others... how much is the actual service? So i would pay you $200 + ..... and then get my $200 back upon you receiving and inspecting my valve cover.
Capone 05-18-2009, 10:17 PM +200 Core fee + Cost of actual service
core will be refunded once they see your valve cover isnt broken, cracked or messed up.
I am interested but im just not ready to pull off the valve cover off just yet.
StevoDaEvo 05-18-2009, 10:38 PM how long would this take? and acutal cost
cause my evo is finishing up at TurboTrix and I can have them send my valve cover to get work done.
Malves85 05-18-2009, 10:47 PM Whats involved in taking the valve cover off? Just take a few bolts out and lift up or is there a process and special precautions to take?
Excalibur 05-18-2009, 11:58 PM I would want this for sure!! I was just about to start looking into it. Do you guys have a list of colors? I hope you have metallics and candies.

Thanks man! I guess I'm blind b/c I didn't even see that page when I went there before. I'm definitely in. I just gotta figure out what scheme I want to go with.

Add your names to the list.
meat_EVO 05-19-2009, 11:42 AM i just want fully polished
Joe@JNZFinishing 05-19-2009, 12:38 PM The actual coatings start a 50$ for a VC and go up from there depending colors/styles/extra work etc.
DVDee 05-19-2009, 03:41 PM I just realized these guys are close to me. Good to know.
JNZTuning 05-19-2009, 04:36 PM Just to be sure that it is crystal clear this is a refundable core deposit to ensure that we get a good valve cover in return. We coat the one we have in stock and send it to you. You pull yours off and put the pretty new one on. Then you return your original valve cover to us. Once we inspect it and make sure it is not cracked we refund the $200 back to you.
The service for a single stage color is $50. If you want a candy or extra clear or anything that requires multiple coatings the service is $75. Shipping is never more then $20 with full insurance up to $400.

Dave, if you're definitely interested in the first VC, shoot me a PM. If we get enough interest I'll probably get another VC so we have 2 cores in stock.
JNZTuning 05-19-2009, 09:50 PM how long would this take? and acutal cost
cause my evo is finishing up at TurboTrix and I can have them send my valve cover to get work done.
Turn around time for a cover is usually less than a week (shipping can affect this obviously) for an in stock color.
Shipping from TurboTrix is a day each way. If you want them to send it down we would be happy to get it done ASAP for you.

I will go ahead and talk to keith or mark about it. So we should be in touch soon.
Brown211 05-19-2009, 10:57 PM How much is shipping to Canada? If its reasonable, I'm down.
COBALT-to-EVO 05-19-2009, 11:12 PM finally, been waiting for this. and for the noobs like me out there who never removed the valve cover on a newer car. gaskets? will i need to replace them when i do this or??
lol at the rape yellow
man thers a lot of reds. gona have to do alot of thinking about this.
JNZTuning 05-20-2009, 03:14 PM How much is shipping to Canada? If its reasonable, I'm down.
Probably about $35 with the insurance via USPS priority to Canada.
Customers pays the shipping to return the core to us as well, if you are keeping tabs on costs.

Yes we would recommend a new gasket. They are $27.42, part #1035A583.
JNZTuning 05-20-2009, 05:05 PM Oh, and to the member who asked where we are we are located in Hatfield, Pa 19440. About 25 miles NE of Philadelphia.
-Our core should be arriving here tomorrow so we can start taking orders shortly after that. :) I'll work on getting this service added to our website for you guys.
JNZTuning 05-20-2009, 09:04 PM I will go ahead and talk to keith or mark about it. So we should be in touch soon.
If you talk to them today or tomorrow morning, I can bring it back down with me tomorrow afternoon.
I'll be heading up there tomorrow to see Bean and Keith tomorrow.
StevoDaEvo 05-20-2009, 09:07 PM hehe, So that means I wouldnt have to pay for shipping charges?
dakoop 05-20-2009, 10:53 PM Sounds like a great idea!
JNZTuning 05-21-2009, 03:45 PM hehe, So that means I wouldnt have to pay for shipping charges?
You'd have to pay for them on the way back up to Bean.
I'm leaving in about 20 minutes to hit the dyno up there and just got off of the phone with Bean who's going to a track rental with Brandon's car.
I'll grab that cover off of your car when I get up there.
JNZTuning 05-21-2009, 04:34 PM We have our core in and being washed right now. The waiting list is about 3-4 deep at the moment but with a response like this we will likely splurge and buy another new OEM cover to speed up the wait time.
MrPurpleEvo 05-21-2009, 07:11 PM bump for the guys over at JNZTuning...they did a great job on my stuff..i'll be posting up some pictures soon.... :)

JNZTuning 05-22-2009, 12:39 AM I just picked up a used cover today at Turbotrix when I was up there using the dyno, which I'll be using as a core as well if Steve doesn't mind.

Steve, I'm going to run your's through the parts washer tonight for a few hours to get it ready. Let us or Bean/Mark know what color you want on this one and we'll get it back up there for ya. :rock:

It's really up to you but maybe candyapple, pearlwhite with flakes, midnight metallic blue with flakes, or plaz berry Blue with purp and gold. Just a few to maybe help you out a little.

I like Midnight metallic blue with flakes. I had that paint on one of my bikes.
It can be dirty for a while until it very noticeable.
But would that color flow with a WW?

I think it would look like sex for I have a WW as well and I'm thinking of doing some Pcoats on it as well although I have other things I need to do first like getting the car painted and getting some more parts for I haven't treated her with new gifts in a while although I'm going to put new track tires on her tomorrow maybe but I need to mess with our Pcoater at the shop to see what color I might like to do some of the engine bay with. I was also thinging of doing a lot of carbon accent peaces in the enging bay as well so IDK.
StevoDaEvo 05-22-2009, 06:18 AM So many choices, not enough time...

jmayevox 05-22-2009, 06:30 AM I have better chances getting shit on my a bird than hitting the lotto.

I think that would look sick man I have always loved white cars with black accents. Thats the way I had my S2k I had the valve cover Pcoated with a polished black and a carbon fiber spark plug cover it came out really nice hell I won a few best engine tropies at HIN in FL.
JNZTuning 05-29-2009, 05:18 PM Just did our first one, sent out PMs, who is next?
Excalibur 05-29-2009, 05:47 PM Can you guys post pics of completed covers? It would aid in people making their decisions.

I had it in a high gloss polish black
JNZTuning 06-09-2009, 08:49 PM Just as a side note, please make sure that EVERYTHING that is removable from the valve cover is taken off before sending it to us (valve cap, PCV, etc.). Just want to make sure that you still have everything for the car when the new one gets back to you. :thumbup:
Thanks!

boostsaves 06-27-2009, 06:19 AM Joey how much was it door to door?
well i got a spark plug cover also so its hard to say. but i think its about 270 (dont quote me on that) and after they get the core back they refund you 200. its pretty damn cheap and it looks so much better

Wow, thats a lot better then I expected. I will be buying the spark plug cover as well.
JNZTuning 06-29-2009, 05:19 PM Yeah, the service really isn't that expensive for a valve cover. In a single stage color it is $50. With a two stage color like Joey got you are looking at $75.
ill have pics posted tomorrow
JNZTuning 07-08-2009, 09:03 PM Have you had a chance to put any pics up yet Joey?
JNZTuning 07-09-2009, 10:47 PM Have the core ready and available for powdercoating!

Jeremy@SSP 09-03-2009, 11:26 PM I have a extra valve cover that I would like done asap. Picked out the color from that site like you said....the color is Tropic Black and the spark plug cover in Gold transparent.
Excalibur 09-04-2009, 12:09 AM What type of designs are you interested in?
Maybe the rising sun or something. Still debating.
JNZTuning 09-04-2009, 06:05 PM I dont daily drive my X, can I send you mine to be powder coated?
Sure you can. Turn around is about 2 business days for in stock colors and the service would just be $50 plus about $10-$15 in shipping and insurance.

JNZTuning 10-13-2009, 07:03 PM We're going to have to update the terms of the core program as we can't have the core out there for extended periods of time with other people waiting.
From this point on, we'll be requiring that people send the core back out to us within 7 days of receipt. This means that from the date UPS marks the package delivered, we need to have a working tracking # from your shipping company showing that the core is on its way back to us. After that point, there will be a $15 per day subtracted from the core charge that the customer receives back.
This of course, doesn't include shipping time, but we can't have the core out there for weeks when other customers are waiting on it.
If anyone has a deposit on the core right now and doesn't want to agree to these terms, we can issue you a credit back on your deposit. Otherwise, these terms are in effect from this day forward.
Thanks! :thumbup:

I'd love to see this beside the RR Evo X. I never like buying anything red because it doesn't match the car. So I end up going with Wrinkle Black most of the time. This time I'm not sure I want wrinkle black on wrinkle black.. I think that would be going to far... so I'm stuck.
JNZTuning 03-10-2010, 02:46 PM 1. Pricing can all be found on the website for any possible color combination. Shipping is typically no more then $15 in the lower 48.
2. We haven't seen the Candy Red next to the paint on a RR car yet either so I can't be of too much help. :( We have sold almost a dozen in that color already so someone must have some pics they can share with us.
Jcdeng 08-04-2010, 03:07 PM Sure it is. We are here Monday through Friday from 10am till 6pm. You would be here all day though if you were trying to have us pull your valve cover, clean it, out gas it, coat it, cure it, and reinstall it.
How about if I place my order ahead, then when the product is ready, I drive down there, u pull my stocker and put the powder coated one on my car. then I pay and drive away?
also can you do midnight purle color? I think the code is LV4

why not do the mail thing? it is very easy to pull the stocker off. Took me like 15 mins to swap them out.

ZeroCooll21 07-22-2011, 01:01 PM Yah i'm guessing since this is a old thread they might not be subscribed still. I'd shoot a email to that address in the link. I'm doing so as well.
FYI Mitsu sells Aluminum covers if you want to replace the crap plastic. Kinda crappy they didn't just sell us a Al one with the car.
kirradude1025 07-22-2011, 01:13 PM I have the Aluminum one, but I don't want any downtime.
ZeroCooll21 07-22-2011, 01:17 PM Ahh gotcha, well I'm sure they would be willing to do the same thing with core/deposit so you can swap and mail the old one back.
How much did you pay fro the Al one?
kirradude1025 07-22-2011, 01:18 PM I have an 08...
I talked to the dealer the other day about getting a new one, and they told me $350.
ZeroCooll21 07-22-2011, 01:20 PM Cool thanks bro
JNZTuning 08-02-2011, 10:01 PM We're still coating these valve covers. Your best bet during the summer while we're busy is to give us a call (215.997.6850).
We can get new covers (Aluminum) for $275.40 with gasket if you have the composite units.
Thanks!
f1av8tnfan 08-16-2011, 03:24 PM This is confusing! Are we talking about the Engine Cover, the Spark Plug Cover or the Engine Valve Cover?
