Fuel Filler Door Replacement

One tragic casualty of the hail storm that attacked my Miata in Colorado was a dimple dent on the fuel filler door. Other dents on the hood and trunk still need to be fixed, but replacing the fuel door was an easy quick fix. Two small bolts hold the fuel door hinge to the body of the car, and there are small rubber bumpers on the door that keep it from rattling. There is a metal spring tab that pops the cap open, and I put a piece of shrink tubing over that to prevent it scratching against the paint.
