Hey fellas,

I'm in the process of getting a new rear bumper cover painted (switching from the base model to the premium 2-piece one) and want to provide the body shop with a sample of the existing body work so they can match up the paint as close as possible.

Figured that the gas door would be the easiest (and smallest) body panel that I could give them but for the life of me I can't figure out how to remove it from the car. Either from the hinge portion or just the painted portion.

Any advice on how to remove it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks :thumbsup:

There is one tab in the center of the door. It might be behind the decal. Just lift the tab a little and pull the door off. It should just slide towards you.

stick a screwdriver in the tab thingy and pull while prying out, might be behind the sticker showing where the gas funnel is
