Need Valve stem caps
i just noticed im missing 3 of my valve stem caps,, dealer said he could get me some for 5 each but it would take 2 weeks, blah! i just wanted to go out to his lot and grab some off the showcar! =P
anyone have any extras? or know where else to get them..?

i guess i could just got get some generic caps from autozone or wherever, but aren't the stockers stainless steal? i dont want to build up any corrosion with different metals..

You can get a new one for $3.54. I think you should be able to afford that.

Why not buy some with the C6 logo on them from one of the forum vendors? Once the modding starts with this simple item, you won't be able to stop and you'll spend all your money doing mods like the rest of us.

Correct - the OE caps are just generic Schrader aluminum caps. You can get a pack of 4 from Pep Boys, Autozone, etc. for about $1.79.
