You will find a LOT of threads with this same topic when you are in the "External Engine" forum and when you "Search This Forum". And you will no doubt come across the phrase "A lid is a lid is a lid." Happy reading.

Get the black one. The black ones flow better with the lines of the car*. I have a black lid and love it*.
