I have them on my doors too. You just push them in and they stay put.....no glue needed.





You can order it from this guy;

Our Mustangs didn't have a good place for us to hang the gas cap so I went to the store and bought this;




Painted it and stuck it here;





You can buy the stick on hooks from the Dollar Store and the paint from Wal-Mart.

I chopped that stupid plastic strap off the 2nd week I had my car.

I fill up my own car and I don't let no gas jockey touch my car.

here are a few low(ish) cost visual upgrades I've done. I'm going to add some 1" wheel spacers to the list shortly so my tires line up on the outer edge of the fender instead of being recessed



Billett gas lid
got mine from UPR for $90 shipped. ditched the gas lid strap as well

Shelby style hoodpins
got 'em for about $100 shipped and had them engraved for a few bucks as well


2010 GT500 Hood Vent
got it for $54 shipped from Tasca Ford Parts. used aluminum rivets...so about $60 total installed


Chrome Tail-light trim
$30 shipped...but you can find it at most Parts Stores. It's just basic chrome trim you can find in the "dress-up" area

9mm Bullit Door lock pins & Billet lock bucket covers
about $25 for it all off eBay

How many feet of trim did it take to outline the door panels and what color did you use on your vista blue?
