This is very important for proper installation and use of the hardware!&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like OEM, the lower edge of the spacer has a small lip on it.&nbsp; This lip is critical to the function and installation of the valve cover gasket by holding the gasket in place during installation and use.&nbsp; With that, the lip would be useless without the one-piece design.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/Mazdaspeed\/Mazdaspeed-valve-cover-hardware\/best-mazdaspeed-valve-cover-hardware-corksport.jpg\" alt=\"Mazdaspeed Valve cover kit one piece design that retains gasket\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s look at how the OEM hardware works: When you remove\/install your valve cover, the gasket stays in place on the valve cover. &nbsp; Imagine fighting to keep that gasket in place and lined up when trying to install the valve cover\u2026silly right?&nbsp; Then you get leaks and oil dripping down the side of your engine\u2026nobody wants that.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s exactly why we retained the OEM features\u2026the lower lip and one-piece design.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\" \/images\/Mazdaspeed\/Mazdaspeed-valve-cover-hardware\/gen2-mazdaspeed-red-valve-cover-hardware-kit.jpg\" alt=\"Mazdaspeed Valve cover with red hardware kit installed\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Now what are the colors!?&nbsp; You can choose from Black, Red, Blue, Gold, Purple, and Clear (Raw AL with a clear finish) and you can choose the color of the bolts as well!&nbsp; We will have the option to choose raw stainless (community standard) or black stainless bolts if you want a less bling look.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/Mazdaspeed\/Mazdaspeed-valve-cover-hardware\/mazdaspeed-best-valve-cover-hardware-kit-stainless-bolts.jpg\" alt=\"Mazdaspeed Hardware color kit options in blue, red, black, gold, purple, and clear by CorkSport\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to add some color to your <a href=\"https:\/\/corksport.com\/mazdaspeed-3\/\" title=\"\">Mazdaspeed 3<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/corksport.com\/mazdaspeed-6\/\" title=\"\">Mazdaspeed 6<\/a>, or even <a href=\"https:\/\/corksport.com\/mazda-cx7\/\" title=\"\">CX-7<\/a> with the DISI-MZR turbo engine AND you want it to work just like OEM then this is the <a href=\"https:\/\/corksport.com\/?subcats=Y&amp;pcode_from_q=Y&amp;pshort=Y&amp;pfull=Y&amp;pname=Y&amp;pkeywords=Y&amp;search_performed=Y&amp;q=hardware+kit&amp;dispatch=products.search&amp;security_hash=c72029499463ebbfd0af3f4e1ef408cd\" title=\"\">hardware kit<\/a> for you.\u00a0 Looks fantastic, installation is straightforward and you can choose from an assortment of colors to fit your build.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Connect with us<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-social-links has-icon-background-color is-style-default is-layout-flex wp-block-social-links-is-layout-flex\"><li style=\"background-color: #000000;
