Default Colin's New Fuel Door!

It's easier to just post a thread than to email him a bunch of pictures.

This is Colin's new alpine white fuel door. Original paint! Just got it from DC Auto.

Took a couple of pictures next to my car to verify that it is original paint.

Now to clean it up some...

As you can see in the first picture, there is a mysterious dark ring around the one on the car now.


Actually no I have no idea, you'll have to ask Colin, potent951turbo, why he wants it. Still working on cleaning it up. I'll be ready to put it on my car and send him my original by the time I'm done, though...

I decided that I wanted to put pictures up of pretty ladies instead of instruments so I'm parting it out.

Relax, it came that way from DC auto.

I just glanced in the other thread; you're sure that it's no big deal about the ribbon and all the electrical guts? Because I can in no way confirm the last time this thing worked.

As shown in the 3rd picture, someone did spraypaint the bottom with reflective paint, though. I guess they wanted to do the tin-foil mod for brighter lights but didn't have any tin foil. Be advised.

Okay marcquito, we'll PM out the details and this thing is yours.

For some reason I always liked the OIL OK? sticker.

Looks great man, I really appreciate you picking that up for me. I'll will PM you before you try sneaking it on to your car lol.

For those of you wondering why I wanted it, my car has the original paint but for some unknown reason the edges on the gas door are chipped up. Its not too noticeable except when you open the door, but I always wanted to find a clean original door to replace it.
