there are some decent OEM-look chrome repops for 70 bucks around. ecklers has them for 55. everybody selling used corvette LS6 valve covers got the special edition version without the slant for the brake booster. makes em rarer and more valuable...

If you’re not in a hurry, watch Craigslist and FaceBook marketplace for valve covers. I know on Craigslist you can save a search and receive daily notifications. Not sure if FaceBook does that.
i picked these up off of Craigslist about a year ago for $15.
