I recently installed a fuel door in my deckilid and it has made refueling the car so much easier 
The ? is do I leave natural or paint it to match the trunk?

I always thought the fuel door was behing the license plate or on the quarter panel  I think you are going to devalue the car by leaving that there

If any of us cared about how "valuable" our cars "could be" we be babying them and hanging out in the restoration forum.

For some reason I'm ok with those being natural but the more I think about it the more I think I want to replace the large headed bolts with flush head rivets and paint it.
I've seen it done that way on a few cars and like it but then some cars leave it as is and they look good to.
Leave it as is.... if you painted it blue the next
thing would be the wheels and tires blue..... you
gotta have some contrast
