I like what you have done with the filler flap, any chance of some close up pix as I will have to do the same?
What have you used underneath the flap?

Hi Paul,
Went to scrappies and chopped out a filler interior panel. flap and cap from a Hyundai something or other, used it as a mould in fibreglass. Got the filler neck as well....Then I cut the flap out of the wingtop, bonded the filler recess to the underside of the wing and bonded the hinge to my cutout piece.
Now BIVA compliant, outside with tethered cap
I know some don't like it outside but it suits me just fine !
See pics, send me a PM if ya wanna discuss the detail !
