Those Mitsu valve caps look pretty good. There's a safe choice.

If you really want to go for bling, get a set of Rays Engineering valve stems + caps (only sold as a set from Mackin) for $75+ for a set, take them to a wheel shop where they'll take off your tires, install them, and charge you again for the whole job. That bling factor just cost you over $100.

I'd rather get a drop in filter for that price.

Don't paint the rubber ones, I searched walmart, autozone, couple other autoplaces. they all sucked.
Get a nice shaped METAL cap with sleeve set, spray paint it couple times. then some clear coat spray.
I found a nice set of blue @ walmart, but the red everywhere was ugly. good luck, post a pic to rub in FJF's face

Ever try Googling first?








EDIT: Look at the link below:

I've had my valve stem caps stolen from me three times now. I don't give two s**ts about the couple of dollars it's going to cost me to replace them - it's the mere fact that people can be so petty sometimes. So I got some metal caps that allow air into them without taking them off. I used some Loc-Tite on the threads and took a slip joint plier and really tightened them down.

Now let's see those a-holes take my stems away from me.

Try Gruppe-S. The chrome ones they give you with there wheels are really nice.
