Very nice, as long as they are chromed metal. Some alloy products cause a fusion and weld themselves to the brass valve.

I think if I had these dust caps, they'd stay in my glove box, until I went to an OC Meet! I think they look great!

I think my most pointless upgrade was my 'Trafficmaster', closely followed by my pre-project seat belt bolt covers

The most expensive boo boo was the 3 sets of Powerfolds & switches, that I bought & then got rid of 'cause I could never get them fitted. Some just don't learn
