Cabrio 'S' Fuel Door

After reading about not being install an 'S' Fuel Door on my Cabrio 'S' I went a different route. Had to do some cutting, and serious modifications, but I got a billet door to fit.

Looks great! Out of curiousity, what do you mean by serious modifications? Was a body shop required? Would be nice to see a full side shot

No body shop but inside the door I had to trim the body as the fuel door has a couple of pieces that sit lower and then I had to trim the lip of the fuel door housing off that sit inside the car. Will do a full side shot later raining like crazy right now.
