New Lens Cap for My IIIC

Is my new cap a little over the top? I wouldn't want antone to confuse my IIIc with an FSU camera.

Looks about right (for a post-war 111c)

Looks designed to attract thieves... like a Super Red Dot !! Not for street use, for certain, unless its Rodeo Drive, or similar.

Humm.... It certainly screams Leica, and here I am thinking of ways to make to make my IIIF look more like a Zorki 3.
