    Evidently the mechanic that filled my tires up with nitrogen at the dealership. Thought it necessary to throw my factory Schrader Valve covers away and replace them with some cheap ass green ones.. They are trying to order me some new ones but have no idea what the factory ones look like...

    Can someone PLEASE post a pic of a factory Schrader valve cover?? So I can forward it to the dealership and get some ordered.. This the most ridiculous thing I know but I will be extremely grateful for assistance from anyone..

    Will

    I could see why you wouldn't want the green caps , I like the aluminum caps better.

    I could care less really but the dealership was hell bent on ordering me replacements.. I was asked if I could get a pic of the stock ones and I said that I would ask around.. As I'm in the habit of seeing commitments through, regardless of how petty it may seem, I posted the thread.

    Again I would like to thank Vikes for his assistance in helping me close the loop.

    you realize the green caps denote that the tires are filled with nitrogen?

    I'm sure he does, but they are ugly. I have seen chrome ones with a little green rung that look ok on certain rims.

    Yeah, I have them, they say SVT in green. Holy shit. I replied to a tire valve stem cap thread. I need a drink.
