no mine was only on with a bit of tape i guessed so you could line it up correctly better quality fake i reckon
 
it was just 2 little bits of tape holding the center badge down on mine.

apart from those bits of tape the badge was completely loose, like baldydave said most likely so you can line it up and stick it down,

i know it's 100% fake but it's made from Alli, looks alright and does what an oil cap is supposed to do so who gives a f*ck :lol:

They shatter.

Under hard driving the engine will get hotter, a plastic cap wont be able to withstand the same tolerances that a aluminium one will.

They heat up and swell, then, over night or once the car is left to stand for a while, they will cool. Either getting stuck in the head or warping.

Mine shattered on my S2000. In Germany.

That's a pretty good reason right there. :lol:
 
Really. I am surprised.

I retract my earlier statement.

Besides I had a spoon engine cap on my EP3 & DC5.....


Not to mention the socks. Worth at least 3bhp.

Never.

Ever.

Will I ever run a plastic cap on a car I drive hard.

I got an aftermarket cap after hearing your story. Not likely to go wrong, but not worth the risk when you can pick up a decent second hand one for peanuts.
 
why dont you get a fine knife and lift the sticker and then glue it down on the correct way.. that way itll look better?
 
I have a genuine mugen oil cap if anyone wants it. I believe ts geniune as the guy I brought it from say it is and he a trusted member and two the packaging ironically spells genuine wrong.
