Default Where to find "Pontiac" stamped LSx valve covers

I posted in here since its Pontiac related...

So just as the title says guys, Ive searched high and low but the only thing that keeps turning up is "Chebby" stuff, lol. So please point a brutha in the right direction as I would like some aluminum stamped covers for my car.
thanks!

I have never seen any LSx covers or Gen 1 or 2 for that matter that say Pontiac, maybe you can just buy some Pontiac chrome logo from a resto catalog, with jb weld or something.

Thats what I was thinking of doing for my LT1, but I decided against it

Ive actually seen stamped ones for the gen 1, 2, and the LTx, but not the LSx...Thanks for the idea, if I dont find what Im looking for, I might just go the custom route.

Not what he's looking for, ...
"Valve Covers", not "Fuel Rail Covers".
Not the same.

Why post the unrelated at all then, for that matter?

You could try getting blanks and have them CNC engraved, and then professionally painted, or powder coated.

(No, not the same either. What does that have to do with it?)

Yeah, I was thinking that but I was just hoping that there was something like that already out there.

Those rail covers are a nice alternative but not what Im looking for for now, thanks.

I checked GMs 07 Catalog, and all they have is Corvette CSR and Chevrolet covers. The Chevy ones are raised, while the CSR is engraved. The CSR is also taller though, they look nice. The Chev ones are fricken $95/piece, and that's through GM Parts Direct even!! :\

Some one should make these. They'd be a hot item.
