Lightbulb Engine Bay Bolt Dress up kit (Downstar)

Anyone else install the Downstar Bolt kit? It really pretties up the engine bay.
Blue Zinc/Red Washers.

Garage List
do they have a specific F95 kit or did you have to piece it together?

I didn't know about these until I saw them on an ad somewhere. For a "cheaper" mod I think others would like them.

I would say go for it if they allow you to work with them.

S58 kit they don't sell an F97 Kit on the site.

Weird that Downstar does but it's out of stock: https://downstarinc.com/collections/...n-complete-kit

Looks like they will fit and are just "covers" for the existing caps

Ok 2 out of the three fit :-( ... The oil filter cap is too small. It's prob why they sell one specific for the f95. The two other coolant caps fit fine.

Just did it for the g05

Didn’t go full out yet, but did most of them…..
It is refreshing to say the least.

It looks ugly, but worse yet replacing original class 10.9 fasteners with god knows what.
