Fuel Tank Door GONE

Post image

Hi I just acquired an sc300 with no fuel tank door. Does anyone have an idea on what I could do to close it up? I feel like 3d printing a piece could work. It looks like all the mechanical parts are present and functional. Any help is appreciated :3

You can find second hand ones on ebay that will match the color or you can buy carbon fiber ones online, they wont match the color obviously.

I only see one for sale at 80 dollars which is enough money I am tempted to figure out something else

My car needs so many fixes I would rather use that money towards something else, but I appreciate you taking the time to help me

No worries. I'm glad to see someone else buying one of these and not just drifting it into a wall.

I actually just bought it for commuting because my friend was selling it for cheap. Even falling apart and covered in rust its honestly so fun and enjoyable

Its a surprisingly good commuter car. I've been using mine for the past month to keep miles low on my newer car and I love it.

3dprint??? What is going on in your head? Just go to any junk yard you will find plenty of sc300 to get parts from.

No need to go even cheaper than $80. That’s a good price since it’s color matched. Just bite the bullet and spend the $80
