if you already have the SLP lid, i'd just stick with it. no reason to switch lids unless you know you can sell the SLP to someone and get a pretty good chunk of money for it.

thanks bro.
SLP lid is the aftermarket lid....if its SLP embossed the same color as the rest then it is a SLP SS which there were...-and if its the SLP lid with white letters its the other aftermarket....one came form the factory the other had to be purchased....no difference as well
