Clear Gears feelings

I was wondering if anyone has the clear gears clear differential covers or have an opinion of them. I am thinking of using on my 14 bolt rear. Thanks and let me know.

It might not be so nice in the future

I have my opinion on them. They might look really good new, but what about after the gear lube get hot for a while, I'm Pretty sure every one knows what old gear lube looks like, black as night, I think that they would get stained and look like a brownish plastic after a while. Might not if you change lube regularly, or dont drive that much. Just my opinion.

something about the durability of plastic i dont feel comfortable with.. depends on what you use your truck for i suppose... out where i live (gravel roads) I dont think it would last long at all..
