Default fuel tank lid

Does anyone else think that the flimsy plastic piece they call a fuel tank lid looks ridiculous?! I HATE MINE! It just doesn't fit the car at all. I mean , its just a piece of plastic! Does anyone know if there is something else I can put on there that would look way better?!? Thanks

Should have just made the car completely smooth IMO.....screw the window washer in the back along with that ugly water thing on the uppper glass portion and should have made the fuel lid on the back of the license plate....but again just my Opinion

I could be wrong, but I think having the gas fill behind the rear license plate became illegal quite some time ago due to crash hazards.

Nismo makes a gas lid for the 350Z, the only problem is if you install it you might get a check engine light.

Also, no more cars can have the gas tank in the rear behind the license plate due to fire hazards after wrecks. Besides, who wants to bend over and put gas up a car's a$$?
