You have too many spares and are getting obsessed

I quite like the idea though

Not sure if you have written this in jest so I will reply with caution
I to have a thing for symetry and like everything even (yes probably verging on one of those disorders), but I think maybe 2 petrol caps would look over the top although that maybe just because im used to seeing the coupe with just one and so can't really say unless I see it, to sum up............what a useless reply!

Cheers
John

The first thing to remember about symetry is to spell it right it's symmetry

And of course you need a matching his 'n' hers steering wheel, dash and pedals

Plus you need to reverse the direction of the spokes on the wheels on one side of the car since once side is lop-sided compared to the other...

Great photoshop Craig.

Carl, I think it would look wrong, IMHO the wiper arm balances against the fuel cap if you catch my drift.

If you did pipe it up then you would have more choice of pumps at the filling station with out having to turn the car round

How about getting rid of the fuel cap all together and smoothing over the right rear wing. The fuel cap can go in the boot ?
