2 Piece Valve Cover

I'm looking for a good looking 2 piece valve cover. I found this one at Ecklers, but I didn't want to spend that much.

I've looked up Petco but can't find anything. I didn't really want covers I found on Ebay. They're ugly.

Any suggestions besides paying $130?

$130 isn't much for aluminum valve covers. - very few places have 2-piece vc's. - The edlebrock's look to be 2 piece, but they aren't.

Those arent actually aluminum. If you read, it says Chrome steel w/ aluminum inserts. I dont know if that means that the tops are aluminum or what?
