alloy bonnet fuel filler

[rookie (uk)]

Hi all,



Does anyone know if this has been done before?

I'm thinking about getting a duplicate bonnet (sorry... hood), probably fibreglass, and trying to fit a fuel filler that sits in the hood itself.

I'm thinking in the style of an Audi TT type filler, but obviously more period looking and not all boy-racer.


Thanks.

Yes, it's been done. I understand that it's a little tough to remove the fuel cap through the opening in the bonnet, and some fuel nozzles don't fit well, but other than that it's pretty decent.

I installed one in mine, have no trouble
getting to the gas cap.

ok, thanks for your replies guys.


chappy, what filler cap is that then?

I see that you bought a spare bonnet to put it in.. that could be a wise idea.

I thought it could be quite cool to get a fibreglass one and fit it with bonnet pins.

It's sized for a Mustang.
