I think it cost me $60 to have it done. Only a few people seem to like the black letters though[>:]....I think it looks good

Just make sure that you go to a good shop or pay more than 20 bucks. A crap job will lead to a warpped valve cover and cause leaks. Also dont crack it when you tighten it back on.
