Engine bay Dress up
Engine bay Dress up
I was wondering a good website or vendor that sells after market caps for all items such as oil, powersteering, radiator, window wash, coolant caps etc.. Also Dipsticks that are accurate.
Those are just two sources for dress-up components to the engine bay. Of course there are other options, but that kind of thing is best looked at item by item. Amazon, eBay, etc.

I'll never understand why people want metal oil change caps. Those suckers get hot after a short drive. You can't take it off to do a oil change or add oil without having to grab a rag.
radiator cap I understand because it shouldn't even be touched while hot and they all come metal anyways.

What a strange thing to rant about.

Love those little things!
For years, JDM Password was the only game for dress-up fender washers, but there are all kinds of options now.
Lol I didn't really mean it as a rant. Just something I always wondered about.
I used to work at a shop and every once in a while a car would come in for a oil change and they had a aluminum or metal oil cap. Those suckers were super hot.
I do my own oil changes but prior to that experience I never knew people would swap out the plastic cap for a metalized one.
I guess it's more for the people that go to car shows and open their hoods.

Yep, people who change oil at a shop must really hate them... that makes total sense.I've been on-again, off-again about replacing my oil cap with a different design, time for something new. I snagged my cap off the previous car when I bought the G. Here's an old pic:
I used to work at an oil shop and never really cared for the oil caps or not...I'm wearing gloves and always using a rag at all times. Nothing to complain about, I actually just got hired by Toyota today as a lube tech for now. Yes I know Toyota and I own an Infiniti ;P
I definitely tried searching through amazon and even farting around on google but I couldn't find anything to my liking.

All depends on what you're looking for. I bought an ARC oil cap which I may trade for a Top Secret, both are a small fortune now. Also bought an ARC radiator cap despite having a paint matched VMS rad cap cover and NISMO oil cap.
I personally don't think the ARC oil caps are in any way attractive due to their color schemes. Which Nismo cap did you have? I found one that is nice but not $127 nice..
Mine was black but it's been painted purple now to match my engine bay. There are some decent looking HKS caps as well, all depends what you're looking for and, in the case of ARC, what you're willing to spend.
The ARC cap I currently have matches the cap on my combo can, polished silver and gold / brass, so it does pull together nicely but I'm not keeping it. Hopefully the Top Secret anniversary cap will be here next week.
I'm having problems posting photos for some reason.
