C5r gas cap?
So I need some input in the quest of a C5R gas cap and would it look good on a C5 Vette with L5 motorsport fender flares.

If you are talking about the big chrome one.....not very many on the forum like it. It really takes away from the clean lines the car has.

Well my wife looked at a photo of a vette with it on and the verdict is in and she said HELL NO
