Check out these on ebay.
Also some engine paint links for you in case you need it.
Best wishes,

Re: Help on choice of rockercover

Absolutely - just knock it out. Although a breather is important..

Re: Help on choice of rockercover
The lack of breather is the reason I posted the links to the eBay adverts, as I don't think it's worth the bother of drilling and welding in a breather when there are plenty out there with them already in place.
If one for twenty odd quid is too much then just wait for one to come up for a fiver.
Though one of the ones I posted a link for is still sat at 99p with no takers yet and it's already green (listed as a Minor / Mini one but they are all the same fit), worth watching I think (link reposted below).
