What to do for fluid containers?

to sum it up.

my radiator coolant, powersteering, brake fluid containers are nasty. I would like to add color to them, but reading it will be hard for the levels. Any idea on what to do. Know anywhere that sells clear containers? or something

Thanks

You could still paint it, only apply tape to where you don't want the paint. This way, you could leave an unpainted area to see the levels. I agree with you, the containers are okay when the car is new, but add ten years and they get ugly.

hmm, i just thought of something, if you do that, then maybe add an led to the caps, hook it up to the driving lights, this way, you definitely see the levels shining through the slit you left when you painted. ---just gotta figure out how to keep the electricals okay....maybe shine from the back of the container?... i dont' think anyone's done that...so would it be rice? lol it's not neon.
