Can anyone post a pic and tell me who makes a gas cap that you just push on and it pops open? When it's in it sits flush but when you push on it it pops open. I remember seeing it and was thinking about incorporating it into my project!

I'm not sure if these are what you are thinking of, but this is what you description made me think of.

Depending on where they are put they can look pretty good.

I've seen the motorcycle cap on a custome bike, it was painted black to match the tank and almost unnoticable!

Those are the doors! I'm looking for the actual caps themselves. I'm going to have the filler inside the trunk so a flush cap would be kind of neat with what we are planning on doing in the trunk.

I have few more tricks up my sleeve on that. I'm working on countersinking the bolts and then anodizing it. I found a bitchin color to do that, the pulleys, and the valve covers. I just ran out of time for the studio shoot tommorrow. So on it goes for now.

Why because I can put lip stick on a pig, or because I hide my weigh well? That is about the only magic I can do.
And yes they are ARP bolts, I have spent so much on those lately.
