Default polished expansion tank caps, where from

Just fitted a Forge polished expansion tank and the cap looks a bit out of place on it now, has anyone got any links to companies that supply polished caps.

Cheers

Try here :Subaru Parts at Graham Goode Racing

I bought the Greddy one and it fits fine.

Did you find that yours leaked with the standard cap on ? Mine did,that's why I bought the Greddy one and it's fine now

No problems mate. I thought the same as you,for £150 you would have thought the quality would be better

I emailed Forge about my tank leaking a few times and have not got a reply,funny that cos when I was emailing them about buying a tank they replied almost immediately !

I bought a power steering tank also, hope the cap fits better to that, will test it before fitting I think, and if not its getting sent back

I ordered an STI cap from Japanparts - it took a couple of weeks to get here but was over £10 cheaper than anywhere I've seen it in the UK.
