We found a locking gas cap, and that has worked well so far and been easy to use....

But this cover does look nice. I am just wondering how the options would look on a white van....

Re: Installing AMI Billet Tank Cover

Just installed one. Took about 15mins or so. Pretty easy. It doesn't fit EXACTLY flush but I'm a perfectionist. Once you tighten it down the naked eye can't see it, I only know that because I'm the one that installed it. Looks awesome and I'm glad to have a lock now. I recommend to anyone looking to trim out their gas cap. Fits with the overall "theme" I think pretty well. Ordered the one from the link above and (thankfully) I picked the right one.

Re: Installing AMI Billet Tank Cover



Might take that tank vent screen in and have it plated if it can be done.

Re: Installing AMI Billet Tank Cover

My tank vent screen CAME plated and I bead blasted it and painted it black to match the "billet" fuel cap. We should have just traded.

Re: Installing AMI Billet Tank Cover

Greg, I am thinking that the "Brushed" finish would look good on a white van.
