My girlfriend raced a Corsa today and said it had a smart looking hinged fuel cap cover. I wanna improve the cover on my '99 'b', and dont fancy replacing the hinged type for a round one and smoothing the gap where the hinge was, so what was it she saw? Was it likely to be an entire replacement hinged cover or perhaps a stick-on job? Anyone got any pics? Where can I get one? Cheers

it only costs abotu £20 to have it done and sprayed and put back on the car - not worth having it just done in primer
