This weeks marks the first week of production for the billet products offered by Tearstone Performance.

Made from billet 6061-T6 aircraft grade aluminum crafted specifically for the brake cap of the 3G/4G Eclipse and 8G/9G Galant here now.

The problem I and other owners have been faced with over the years when going to shows is that spray paint simply does not do the trick when dressing up the plastic in your engine bay. Regardless of scuffing, the paint still peels and looks nasty (pictured below). I have painted mine 3 times and the result is still ugly. Thus, the billet dress up items are born.

I sell these on http://tearstone.com ('http://tearstone.com') for $65 shipped.

yessir, so it retains the use of the stock diaphram. When I do the power steering cap I have to do that as well since it is too complex to make these replicas of the stock caps and the cost would sky rocket on these then https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif

The cover ads like 1/16th of an inch of thickness (if that) to the existing brake cap. Imagine taking your stock brake cap and wrapping it in aluminum foil. This is sort of the same thing except with billet high grade aluminum.
