It causes my blood pressure to rise every time I fill up and notice it is missing.

never noticed the thud or that the door wasn't flush with the car. I noticed that between 105 and 120 mph the gas door would open. not sure if this was related to the missing bumper.

fortsmith probalbly needs one of these as well unless he already replaced it on the old purple kat

I guess you need to try a more friendly oil??

I believe you can get to the back side of the bumper and use some needle nose pliers to pull it thru.

Tom - you got your question answered,,,,,,how did you get "no respect" from the other members?

We do tend to drop off topic once the question has been answered,,,,but that is just us having some fun.
