Faux battery cover ?

I have a Optima 6 volt battery in my truck, it works great and lasts a longtime but it just does not look good in the truck. I would like to have it look original without spending $400 . What have any of you done to make it look more original?

Yes it is the same. The only difference I can see is no sticker on the eBay one and the fake caps are different color. Doug
