Do any of you guys open your gas filler door at Cars & Coffee events, or is that just a LexVan thang??
I drive with the gas filler door open.

I got my car "out of dealer inventory" and am delighted with everything, except for the plastic fake aluminum gas cap, that annoys me everytime I fill the tank. For $160, it's really a rip; I need it just like a furry mink jock strap!

As I said above, if they come down to $10 I might get one so if you want to get rid of it you know where you can find a Hamilton for it (just kidding...probably not worth it).

4 pages on a "Geniune Imitation Aluminum Porsche Gas Cap" nobody but you will see for the price of a reasonably good dinner. What?

No worries, there is a post on oil plugs that is running 4 pages too, and no one sees that either. But, with the oil plug, the price compares to a mediocre lunch.

Red face

Looks good, but the etching ruins it.

I added one to my car. I like it a lot. I wasn't too worried about the price. It was an option that I chose to add and I was happy I did it.
