The $200 are aluminum slip-on caps (no dipstick or clutch cap for that price)
Mine are 100% real OEM caps that have been re-engineered with chrome etched caps

The mud flaps that copy Pipedreams also suck. I did not have a choice since he was out at the time I was getting my 07 and I had to put them on to drive 3000 miles from NCM. The fakes have a coating on them that is already wearing off. 4000 miles since August 10th.
Go with the real deal.
I want the caps too but am having a hard time departing with the $$$.

Not only are Ed's caps (and other products) the best, you will receive unequalled service from him. Ed is "one of us".[/QUOTE]
