Gas door flew off

What a day, what a day. I spent 5-6 hours cleaning the mini today. Looks great. Get on the highway to run some errands, get out of the car, and the gas door is missing. Where can I get a replacement for this? Preferably pre painted.



Just for good measure, here's before it flew off and still looked pretty.

you know -- a car wash opened my gas cap recently (although my cap is very different from yours). lucky me it didn't rip it off. funny, I thought that the cap was locked while the car is locked (as it was, with me inside).

This is a great time to convert your cap to the S chrome cap. I have one used kit in stock.
