Lancer Fuel door

Postby Wazzy » Sat Jun 08, 2013 7:15 pm

Hey everyone

Got my car painted the other day and got it back today, got the lancer chrome door painted white to match the car. Was installing it this arvo and after much frustration couldn't get it to fit the centre properly.. So I'm going to have another go tomoro. But I bought it off eBay for 90 bucks compared to the other ones that were 150 and it didn't come with the o-ring either. Has anyone else had this problem? And would you have the o-ring in it anyway? It would hold water wouldn't it?

So anyway, needed to vent my frustration :D

Should be easy without the o ring, it was a pain with the o ring. The o ring really stops water going in and out.
