aftermarket oil dip stick

My dip stick needs replacement for my '99 Integra. I was wondering if I had any choice other then OEM?
thanks

What kinds of benefits would you expect from an aftermarket dipstick?

Go to a junkyard and get one for a few bucks.

no benefits in aftermarket dip sticks....... i do know str makes one though. Probably a few other company's out there. You could probably find lots of them on ebay. I'd rather stick to oem though

Use high temp spray paint on yours.

I sprayed mine silver 2 years ago and none of the paint has chipped off or dulled yet.
