Overfender gas cap lid flush - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Hey guys, i'm running B-Magic 50mm rear overfenders on my s13 coupe.
Who knows an easy way to make the fuel door line up evenly with the overfender? Does anybody sell some type of custom brackets?
Any help is appreciated.

No easy way. Cut and weld.

Nobody makes a bracket for this?

I have been running 50mm over fenders for 2 years no. After 3 different attempts I saif f-it. I have no door

I just bought longer screws and used 2 nuts on each screw to bring the door out to match the overfender. The latch was broken already so I don't even use that. My fuel door fit snug to the overfender so that keeps it level until you push on it.

tried that today, but with longer screws the gas lid doesnt want to open and close. Is there something im forgetting?

my latch is broken and not hooked up as well. So you just take some long bolts, put on a lot of washers and fasten them into the stock holes?

Mold it and relocate? Fuel cell maybe?

My chargespeed Overfenders came with with brackets and also a cover of the lid u glue onto the original lid to make it stick out more. I actually didnt even need to use the lid it came with and im flush.

my bmagic 30mm's came with a lid you glue on to your existing one. it's not perfect but its way better than how it looks without it imo...

i think my bmagic 50mm fenders were supposed to come with that as well but i bought them second hand..

IROYLE1 · 07-03-2014, 12:01 PM

just take your oem door off and get some hinges and your own lock to mount the door on the over fender. I mean, if someone wants to steal your gas the can put a foot into your fender and take it. lol Doubt that would happen though.

How I did it is like that but instead of using washers, I used two nuts. One to tighten against where they screw in and one to tighten against the back side of the hinge. That way I didn't have to use a bunch of washers.
