New cover needed for double roller timing chain?

Hey guy. I'm throwing a mild cam in the iroc and I figured I would change out a couple of other things. I want to put a double roller timing chain in there. My question is will I need a new cover? I'm not opposed to the idea. I'd like to freshen up the look of the engine by all means possible. If so, which cover should I get and where can I get it? Thanks guys

They'll clear on factory roller motors too. IMO the cheap chrome ones look cheesy and once on the motor you can't see them anyhow.
