wrap fuel door (pics)

My car is going to be Garnet w/ black accents so this fits, total reversible - slap it on, cut around it, crystal seal it, done in 15 min. The material is 3M black Gloss Scotchprint from Amazon. If I decide to keep it, I'll order a door from GM parts and paint it.

Turned out nice! I hope Chevy bring out the one they have been displaying

Thought you had added black hash marks as well. Did you remove those?

Being honest I'm not a fan of the fuel door. But, it's more of a to each their own thing. I don't like funky fuel doors on any car.

IMHO it's too bad that manufacturers have moved away from the hidden fuel doors. I'd love to have it behind the license plate.

Yup took em off. I decided I don't like the hashmarks… I don't like them connected at the top, they reminded me of the 18" stage prop in spinal tap. LOL

and I don't like the Camaro logo permeated through it when you choose black. The silver border Draws too much attention to it. .

I do like hashmarks, have had them on the last 2 cars. Conventional black gloss hashes are probably going on Thursday. From ridergraphics

Looking great Glen!

Glen e · 02-17-2016, 08:49 PM

Thx! Black spoiler and black lower fascia should complete the look.

You said you are painting the rear fascia? What are you going to use? The gloss look of the rear fascia looks real nice.

Black Plastidip for now, , i personally dont want gloss that low and the piece is tough to get off. If i like it, ill pull it later, do black basecoat with satin clear. I don't have a problem with the surface of the piece, I just don't like it in gray as it matches nothing on the car and I think will conflict with the black spoiler.

Hopefully will look nice.

Agreed, you never really know until youre standing in front of it, got a long list of mods that were reversed as soon as they were completed. Thats what makes products like plastidip and vinyl wrap so great for mods.

Very nice transformation Glen. Glad you ditched the hashmarks

Looking damn forward to the chances in the next week or so with the parts painted, plastidip'ed and black blade spoiler on there.
