Yer and easy to fit mate, just stick over original fuel cap.
Stick on caps are tacky IMO :(

Just found this new Irmscher fuel cap cover on ebay, says its just been released!
I think it looks better than the old one?

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
