Car wash ate my fuel door cover!
So I took my 06 R350 through the local autowash, been through it a hundred times in the past, and got home only to find the cover to the fuel door missing! I went back to the car wash to see if it was located and so far no luck. Any ideas on where to get one (besides dealer)?

I agree!! I never have taken the R to those cheap scratch your ride in a second machines. Spend a couple of more bucks for a Hand Wash and you won't wonder where your gas door is!
