The one on my '89 is aluminum. I've seen plastic ones also. Not sure when they switched them.

Re: Silly question, but I gotta know
Ok, then that explains it. I saw a guy on youtube polishing his 87 TPI and he polished the dist cover, then when I pulled mine of it has a small section where the paint has been rubbed off so I'm guessing mine is plastic. Thanks guys.. Stone
