I really like those, especially on black Yarii; but I am afraid to ask how much!

Honestly, despite the shit I'll get about it, I have thought about one of those faux ones that go over the gas cap door...

Cheers! M2

$350.00!!!!!!!!!! it must give you extra horsepower...must be sucking energy from the outside and drops it in the fuel tank which give you extra 15-20 hp..lolz

C'mon, one of you ingenious types on here should be able to mod something up for considerably less! I think there would be a market, it looks like the fuel filler I have on my litre-class sportbike, and I think it would look sweet on a Yaris!

But not for $350!

Cheers! M2

Well, I just measured and it's 5½" across; and I didn't see a why to remove the fuel door so maybe something that goes over it is the easiest solution.

Of course, if you need a tester, I'm your huckleberry!

if all you want is a CF wrap, then Ill try it out if you want to send me your fuel filler door, and Ill get the CF adhesive wrap from Garm.

Unless someone has their fuel filler door they dont need anymore or a part number I can reference. I dont want to mess it up on yours MadMax if it doesnt turn out good, I would wanna do a test one first.

We've had a few wrecked Yarii lately, I wonder if anyone can pull a fuel door from one of them?!?

OK, it's just a crummy paper mock-up; but I think it shows that it could be a cool mod...
