About a tenner polished. Had one years ago when I was into 'bling' bits and I paid something like that. Only a polished fuel filter, that's all it is.

I wouldnt either... It's a fuel filter, not a bloody mirror.

So long as it does it's job, who care's if it's shiny?

Mine came from ford. It's not very shiny, but it does a good job of keeping shite out of my injectors
