Eh - No - But you can paint the Mivec cover - I have also seen carbon fibre versions of the Mivec cover but they're like hens teeth.

Yeah - I've seen the once or twice on eBay - they go for good money.
If you want to snazz up your engine you can't go wrong with a splash of color..

I'd go with a blue tone to match your hose(s) ;-)
Possibly with some red lettering to match your car..

If you want it to look real trick you could have an auto-painter person do a blue/red job on it.. Would look crap on the whole car - but nifty on a smaller part like the engine cover..
