Yes people in japan do stuff like this all the time (tartan-pattern cam/rocker covers spring to mind) but it's just the culture :P Honestly with the kind of crazy shit that they do over there, the vast majority seems to be way more.. original I guess you could say, than what people do here which often seems to be regurgitating everything done overseas.

Y'know I reckon if you went beyond just the wood grain rocker cover and did as much stuff as possible to look like it is made from timber it could be a winner.
Okay, maybe not ;) |

Something I'd love to see as i'm sure someone's done it before - clear cam covers. I've seen clear cam gear covers, they're nothing new. But to actually see the cams go round and round would be pretty cool, but might look pretty shit as it'd get squirted with oil almost instantly :P plus there'd be all the crank ventilation stuff underneath the top.. Hmm maybe it's not the best idea ever.
