That's why I don't use the BMW valve stem covers unless I am at a show or meet. Everyday use is either black plastic or plain metal chrome ones. Just becareful some of the cheapy metal ones can get stuck on the stem.

Father forgive, for I have sinned. I committed a cardinal one last week while replacing the front clears corners... I put some crazy glue top contact point where it slides into the slot on the side of the headlight. It's easy to get to if I ever need to break the seal, but it's not going to pop out any time soon. Also, good luck trying to steal them.  __________________ 1997 332ti - Don't even ask.

Plain valve stem caps = $1.99 BMW valve stem caps = $16.99 To catch the person in the act of defiling your vehicle = priceless. | | | | | |
