   Earlier (pre 2000/2001 ish) models had black rocker covers, later models had silver.

   on the VTS.
   
   The black rockers are either JP4 plastic ones off the newer engines or someones painted their J4 metal ones.
   
   The VTR the black rocker wasnt around that long, the silver rocker cover was certainly in use on and before 2000 cars
