valve cover brand/style

I found this image listed in an ebay auction and I like the valve covers. Anyone know where I can find a set like these? Are they corvette stockers, or are they customs? Thanks for any replies!

yea when i looked around for a nice set of valcle covers, i stumbled upon a really nice set and the awesome part of it was they looked identical to my stock ones only they were a nice chrome. Summit Sells them if your interested. Ill try and get a closer pic for ya but you can get the idea from this pic. There center bolt ones too so no adapters are needed.

Thanks but for the time being I'm trying to stay away from chrome under the hood.. I'd rather have a matte finish. I'm more interested in go fast at the moment rather then chrome goodies.. perhaps at a later time I'll start polishing and swapping out for chrome goods.
