Question....what's the correct factory finish for a 914 fuel cap? Should it be yellow cad plated or natural finish?

Edit: Just looked at three caps here and I was wrong. It's silver/clear zinc, although it looks kind of 'dull' not shiny. So perhaps they were more likely galvanized and not electroplated? Or maybe there's a less-shiny type of zinc electroplating... QUOTE On a scale of 1 to 10, how important is this to you? For me, probably about an 8. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Look along the inside to see traces of yellow/gold. |
