Thumbs up

Where is the best place to buy polished chrome caps for oil, radiator, power steering, etc? Looking to dress up the engine.

I looked at STEEDA, they sell some indivisually, but wanted to get everyones suggestions, before I jump in and buy anything.

Thanks

I did find this radiator cover I liked. What do you think?

Well MGW sells the best dress up items IMHO.

http://www.mgwltd.com/mustang.html

And UPR has a 05 dress up package.

MGW fit and finish are the tip of the pyramid. They cost a little more but you will not be dissapointed.

mgw is nice, but they only have the oil cap and radiator cap? I wanted the power steering cap, everything to match?!?

UPR has a kit for the '04. Looks great, but not for the '05 ( I dont think?!?!)

Anything out there yet for 2005?

Thanks!!

MGW has the items you mentioned. They also have oil dipstick handles that are just great. I have all three.
LMPerformance in Florida has a very nice, non-logo, polished stainless steel fuse junction box cover that is reasonably priced and attaches with velcro. See them at:
http://www.lmperformance.com/h/73.html

Look under Accessories for the Fuse box cover

Just give them a call, they will help with the correct parts. They may also have parts available that are not on their web site yet.

Just a question. I was looking at the radiator cover Rene posted. In order to change a fog light bulb with the cover installed, you would have to peel that cover off right? Because there are a few clips, that hold the existing black plastic in place that would be covered by the radiator cover. Just curious at any answere.

Actually I was just talking to Chris the owner of Blow By Racing last week and he brought up installation for their radiator cover - with what I tought was a great idea - use velcro.

If you ever have to get UNDER it, just peel it off so you can get your work done.

I second his opinion(since I saw his car in person)I did not want the engine dress up kit until I saw it! WOW! It is great! Very nice looking products, so far I have purchased the dipstick, a/c caps and the windshield washer resoiver cover. Great stuff!!
