While at Home Depot looking to replace some dress screws and pick up some dress washers, I happened across dress caps that will cover the screws altogether. Really happy with how they cleaned up the fascia of the panel.

This may be old news, but it was news to me. Forwarding this along for those who might not have thought of it.

Posting pics of what I was trying to dress up with the naked screw, and with the cap installed. The bonus is that the body of the cap acts like a washer anyway. If you need to get back at the screws, the cap 'hinge' is just a little bit of plastic and will break off easily. But still. Really happy with how this cleaned up the panel.
