Default New Gas Cap!!!!!!
I know some will say why do this, you rarely ever even see it, I just had to buy this after I saw it, the stock one is so cheap looking in comparison.

I love it, adds a nice touch-

Maxspeed Motorsports, they were a pleasure to do business with. I also bought their LED Bulb Kit, but I have not received that yet.

Nice, but how much weight does it add? Probably will lose that extra 3-4 hp, I'd change it out to the super light weight black plastic track version on track days.

Heavier than stock for sure, no go...

And it doesn't click when tightened.
