    Gen V Fuel door in Carbon Fiber

    Does anyone make a full Carbon Fiber fuel door and surround for the Gen V?

    If not anyone know the part number for the black fuel door that seems to be coming out on all the new TA2.0? I have #1 of the Y'Orange and it has a silver door.

    That looks great but how long will it hold up to the petrol fumes?

    I remember seeing someone on the VOA Facebook site recently did one in carbon fiber, but it may have been for a Gen IV...

    I had one done in real carbon on my gen 3 a while back. Held up very well.

    The 3M stuff is expensive $25.00 a foot but you can even paint over it. Mine has been done for about 4 months and had no issue with the fuel. I looked into building one out of carbon fiber but it is not a easy piece to do and a real pain to remove and install that is the reason I recommend the wrap you could to that and a lot of the interior parts as well
