So why start another thread?

Because as a relatively new member on this forum, I was unsure if owners of GT's read other threads regularly?

More than happy to delete if its an issue - just seeking specific owner input here. Appreciate your input on the original thread and thank you.

It's adorable that you think you might get specific or even useful input. Here is where my first post went after a while:

Au contraire. The valve caps on my Strad have a little skirt that covers the rubber valve stem. Never see them before and I am petrified of losing them!

NOW do you see why it is so great to have two threads on one subject, MLC?

Confucius he say "The flasher the valve cap the more likely it is to go missing"

One of my neighbours needs a set of these for his Honda Type R (the halfords inspired one).

I've got them on my new GT-S. Never seen them before and assumed they were metal, so took them off to give them a grease and they're plastic...bonus.

You’ve been greasing your plastic skirt?
