Why not a modified stock one. Looks way cleaner.

Default yeah here you go

and yes the door will be molded in the body just like the viper and not the cobra just sitting on top like such but im not sure yet about which one i leaning more towards the viper door just because it's really different and i have not seen another camaro with one yet but i do like the eclipse door but you a few cars out there with them and yes its less work to put it on but im thinking if i go with the viper one i could really stand alone and yes boss man here the pics so you can see the door off to a point

Looks good was also thinking of going with that style but thought maybe ricey or a auto add on.So went with one off chevy truck (moified) even have a lever to open next to seat (dual levers fuel door / rear hatch in case of dead battery).Not knocking it I like but might not be for everyone but remember its not everyones car nice job!!!!!

Never got the need to draw attention to the fuel door.

Personally, I'm glad mine is hidden behind the license plate.

None of those. All the bling-bling fuel doors befuddle me. Why do you want to draw attention to the fuel door?

I like 01badbird's smooth door. I might have to look into that at some point. The raised nub on the factory door always annoyed me.

Keep it clean. Stock or modified stock to work with the widebody.

Great job 01badbird, way to think out the box...
It's some added security with gas being so dam expensive

Was it difficult getting it wired up?

Take a pic with the fuel door open....

I think chaman pulls it off because of the color of his car, I would put the money some where else IMO

What ever you do, good luck!

+2 for a write up on Badbirds setup. I've been wondering about a smooth fuel door like that.
