wonder if anyone considered making one out of carbon fibre,,sure it wunt be that hard,,at worst even cover original in carbon or carbon effect, think it wud look pretty smart done properly might look into that actually :thumbs: ,

DON'T GET A STICK ON FOR GODS SAKE MAN!!! They look so cheap and tacky... not just when you get up close but even from 3 miles away, no no no!

I was also looking for a flush fit metal cap but went for the dimma fuel cap. Its proper metal and actually has real allen key nuts that bolt on all the way round. Looks like a real fuel cap and is real... kind of. Cost £40 but does look good. Well on my silver c it does, haven't heard of anyone else with a dimma cap before... keeping the originality all the way! :D
