1) Real NISMO oilcap from an authorized dealer - $56.95. One on eBay $11.

2) Compare that picture to this one...


Do you think it's legit?

Fake!

I think there's only one type of Nismo oil cap and it doesn't have a black background like the one you posted.

There's a post on here somewhere from a guy that bought one of those eBay NISMO oil caps. He was in a panic because one of those little black screws came out then fell down in his engine when he removed the oil cap. If you do buy one, I'd recommend removing the screws then Lock-Tite them back in place.

It's the standard Z rear view with the Valentine1 display built in. For more info, check out these threads:

Who cares, the fakes look good! Buy them if you like it. You won't be broke and you'll have what you want!

taking a careful look at the real vs. the fake oil cap, I don't seem to be able to see the 0-ring in the fake.... wondering if there would be any issues with oil leaking out during hard acceleration with increased oil pressure...
