nother low cost mod..fuel door

Post by Pablodragon » Fri Jul 13, 2007 9:53 pm

Snapped a quick shot of this, just finished tonite...
Here's the story... was thinkin of doing something with the fuel door... thought CF, but none to be found... found and thought about CF sticker, they are out there but kinda chessy and too expensive, for just a sticker... looked for a chrome one... found one that almost fit, it was a cover/stick on tho, and was for a Ford F-150 (would have fit, but was about 1/8 inch smaller and thought it wouldn't look good)
... did this for very low cost, just extra paint, a old bumper sticker and the internet!
Painted door bright silver
Googled internet to find a pic of the MOPAR M, printed out, traced/cut out from bumper sticker
stuck M to the door, after dry.
painted door again flat black
peeled off sticker

I know the guys with clean sides or SXT's or custom paint or whatever with matching door handles might not like this one, but I have the SE with the flat black door handles and it matches.
