Nix the new cap.
It will stick out too much. You need many more black treatments before it will match. Maybe try getting it painted in tan?

honestly i dont think that fuel door will look good on ur car... maybe an all silver or chrome one will do. that one looks good on my car cuz my rims match it perfectly. i think on ur car it will be too much.

IMHO, the fuel door doesn't fit well with the look of the car.

if you got rid of the tan rocker stripes and added black instead then it would go better with the black fuel door.

Ok...many thanks all! The nays have it (overwhelmingly) and it saves me $100 to do nothing.

There is a first!
