991 Billet Aluminum Oil Cap Replacement
I'm not a fan of the hard plastic factory screw on oil cap in our 991's. They can crack and the threads get mangled on oil changes. Found this piece from ESC and ordered one. Looks to be a nice piece of kit. Haven't fit it yet since my next oil change won't be until Spring, but so far I like what I see.

Looks interesting. Let us know what you think once you install.

Hmmm. I've changed oil time and time again on multiple Porsches and Audis with plastic oil filter caps and never experienced cracking or thread problems. However, if that thing was painted "aluminum look" with Porsche Logo on it I might pay $160 for one.
