Default Sexy valve covers??

Guys, I'm looking for a link to some of the valve covers that have the tops to cover the coils, they make a carb'd motor so clean! I searched on here but cant find any threads or anything, thanks for some input

They are plastic. Very trimmable, and some applications require a little custom trimming around the back etc for fitment. I thought I posted them big enough for you to see the molecules to know for sure what they were, maybe I should zoom in one more step?

I'll fix the size

Those are the Holley pieces that Dickey is showing. I had my eye on those till I read in the instructions they only fit LS2 and up engines due to coil location ?
I liked that look of the rounded corners that sort of look big-block ish so am making my own out of formed aluminum :
