    Re: pontiac valve stem caps

    I was actually looking at those...but if you loose one...it will look uneven, and you would have to buy another set.

            I had that same set but they faded very quickly, and are tiny. Since then I bought a better set (same place I got my mats from) that not only look better but are a bit bigger and visible compared to the ones you listed



            here is a comparison



            these cost little bit more but I would def suggest them over the others, plus these are guranteed not to sieze or break off causing major stem issues

              I have had a few sets. I won't buy any of them if they have a white background behind the dart. Mine ended up turning yellow. But I have a black set that look sweet and they've lasted a few years.

                well i've already placed my order but 7 dollars isn't going to break my account, so i guess next time around i'll order the ones you got! how long did the first set last you?

                  they still worked fine and didn't ruin anything or break off, but I'd say only a couple months until the dart fades, even those ones are something better than the plastic caps to look at
