If he removes his gas tank, where would he keep his gas?

For the record, I'm pretty sure you meant to say "gas cap"... But alas, I'm bored and replying to anything.

I actually like the gas flap. I don't mean this to be insulting in any way, but I think it's from this XB at school that I walk by every day. At first, I thought it was pretty bad, but it has grown alot on me. With everything done, I love the set!

like most of it just dont get the roof and the gas cap, it like shiney hood, black shiney window faded black roof (with shiny glossy sunroof glass) and back to shiny glass and then onto shiny trunk, dunno maybe if you can etch the sunroof so its not so shiney it would look better to me, but Nice car anyways!

that could just be lighting, from what i figure from the explanation the hood badge, roof, trunk spoiler, and gas cap are all wrapped in Matte Black, so theyre technically the same, although light hitting in different spots on the matte make some parts looks shinier/brighter than others.
i do agree that the matte black roof doesnt match the tint/gloss/glass/whatever black sunroof, but i still think its all in all sexy
