FS: 2 Spoon oil caps
I have 2 Spoon oil filler caps. Both have been sandblasted because they were rather dirty and not cleanable after years under the hood.
They now have a 'satin' finish. There is still some anodized gold left (I tried to anodize them, but sandblasted finishes don't anodize well). If somebody wants a clean sandblasted look, I can get them cleaned up, or these would be good for painting over to match a custom valve color or different engine bay color scheme.
From the pictures, you'll see that the edges are different. I bought them both new from vendors online a long time ago, and after doing some research, I have come to the conclusion that Spoon has changed their designs or had another different design at one point.
The cap with the edges that protrude, I have found pictures from official Spoon USA vendor, and I'm assuming that's the old version see here
The newer(?) version, without the protruding edges, is found here on the Spoon Sports Japan site.
Rest be assured that these are both real, not fakes. But I only have one sticker to give unless I find the other lost sticker (I never put them on, but ended up losing them anyways).
version 1 (old version? US version?)
version 2 (new version? JDM version?)
