I was joking about impressing the attendant. As I mentioned before, this was a gift to me by a friend, so it cost me nothing, but I think it’s an awesome gift. Is it worth the $150? Prob not, but so many other things from Porsche are ridiculously pricey as well. If this was provided by Porsche as standard equipment for all their cars (which I think should be the case), perhaps you wouldn’t complain, as it does look better than the stock cap.

I was just pulling your chain. I've looked at the caps... they are a nice detail. I wish I had friends like yours! Or, mo money.

My fuel door lock is wonky, and I haven't yet pulled the wheel... removed the liner... and gotten up under there to repair it. Likely I'll be scouting that cap when the repair is completed.

Cheers!

Gotcha...I don’t blame you for thinking it’s a rip off cause it is! But it does look sweet, so I’m not complaining.
