Looks great man. People steal gas up your way or is it just a pre-caution?

Any other takers,
 here here
. Any fuel door off a 3rd gen Ram fit no matter 1/2 3/4 or 1 ton fits on our trucks. Same exact door..I bought mine off eBay and it was taken off a Ram. My door is just painted with bed coating though. At the time I didn't think it was worth it to get an aftermarket one because they are expensive but at the price of the one I just found it is definitely worth it if you are interested. Cool mod, it definitely goes noticed

I used to have a '92 ranger with a locking gascap, I always thought it wasn't really needed, but I went to fill up one day and spewed gas all over the ground and under the truck. Turns out, someone didn't like the locking cap and took a sawzall to the filler tube instead. It never fueled up right after the repair, damn dirty shame.
