From what I've seen and read on this board, most use the Mitsu Eclipse door. It takes a slight bit of modification but it's been done...multiple times. Just do a search over it b/c after all the search option is your friend.

The only doors I know of that fit our cars is the mitsu eclipse billet door. You can find them on ebay but they will run you anywhere from $80-$100.

I just put a Misu. Eclipse one on my Camaro last week. No pictures yet but it was a real easy install, very little modifing was needed. I bought it off eBay for $31 too so I was pretty happy.

Depends on the car. I only seem to like'em on red cars, and only if your car is going with a little bit more of an import look. (And no, that's not a rip. I think import looks good if done right).

I know someone that's got the plastic Eclipse gas door. He'll take $30 bucks shipped if anyone is interested. You can email me at scott@car-art.net or him at adam.stanford@groupathletica.com

its pretty simple. All I did is use a hammer and flat head screw driver to make room for the left side of the fuel door. Otherwise it didnt sit flush. Then place it where you want it and drill the holes. I think they look really good painted on some cars, I chromed mine to match all the chrome on my car.
