Default Le Mans Gas Cap

As I am moving forward with my build of my Classic Roadsters drive train project I have started to look to "what's next".

The previous owners of the kit had never added a gas cap thru the body. The tank is installed and the filler tube is stubbed up to just above the top of the tank. I have the filler tube with a stock cap and the Le Mans style flip cap cover to mount over it. But the CR 1 body did not have the recess in the fender to countersink the Le Mans cap into a round well. I know many years ago DV had supplied customers the fiberglass piece that you could add into the fender to make it work.



Now I am open to suggestions as to where I might look to for such a piece without having to make a complete mold myself.
