Simple question...what color is your gas cap?

Mine is this one which I think is aftermarket. So I want to check what color the OEM one is...as I look for a replacement.

I've been getting P0456 every few thousand miles can tighten the cap and it doesn't come back...

Mine looks exactly the same, but I don't recall if it says BMW or not.

Mine looks like that. Does not say mini. And I think it's black instead if green.

Mine looks the same as pictured. Never noticed if it says BMW or not though.

Thanks guys... I've been thinking of getting this:

It says its compatible -- but I don't know if anyone has specific knowledge. I guess I could just go to the MINI dealer near-ish by.
