I was looking at this item: http://www.mossmini.com/cgi-bin/db2w...t?PlateID=6077 and was wondering if anyone had purchased something like it. It's called a billet fuel lid door and I was wondering how well it would match the chrome of the rest of the car? Pictures would be great too. Thanks, Pieter

Hi

I know it is personal opinion but I recon it looks tacky
Why not go for the cooper S ones, bit more work I think but worth it.

I like it but not available for MCS. There is someone in the UK with a similar product for the S but they won't ship to Canada

I have bought this product and I have to say, IMHO, it looks fantastic. I didn't want to do the 'popular' thing and get the 'S' fuel filler conversion - the lid is great quality, and looks really nice - don't think it's tacky at all (tacky is reserved for stickers over your fuel filler lid!!).

Anyway, it's pricey, but you won't see many cars with it fitted - hence the reason I bought it. I had it imported from the US as I couldn't find a UK reseller for it!
