Chrome Master Cylinder (Brake Fluid) Cover???
I am looking for some type of chrome cover for where my brake fluid goes into..
I know billet specialties makes something like that, but I am almost 100% positive that they dont fit our cars...
I REALLY want to get on the ball here, I am about to have about 400$ worth of chrome plating done under the hood, and the brake fluid cover is one more thing I need to complete this.

I've seen them at Napa before, I think its Mr. Gasket that makes them, it was less than $20 if I remember right.

Ok, so what would you suggest I do If it's not made anymore?
Already tried painting one, turned out really crappy and left a paint spot on my hood insulation.

I know it's not what you're asking, but I'd fix the nasty plastic reservoir before I worried about the lid. And I remember seeing a chrome lid a few weeks ago at a parts store, they must still be available.

My reservoir is as clean as can be, sure it needs some new fluid in it, but the outside is as clean as can be.
