Cool idea for my gas door

Ok so i have been having problems with my filler neck and alot of other things in that area \ but i think i have a solution. i started looking for one of those billet gas doors and all i found was a bunch of overpriced covers, most of wich were to big for my car. yesterday i was visiting my uncle and i saw my old motorcycle gastank so i grabbed the dremel and cut out the section with the gas door on it. now i have a locking gas cap that has one of those billet rings on it ill post pics when i take some.

A friend of mine did that with his 90 Civic. It another alternative might be to get a filler door off a new Hyundia Tiburon possibly. They have a bike style filler door, though it may be on a body line.

Originally I had the same idea (Sparco fuel cap), but my final decision is having no gas door. I think shaving almost everything looks neat, exspecially on a bug
