I don't see not running a ground wire to the cap as being a large risk. In theory, there's bound to be some goofy way that the charge on the cap could be different than the potential of the rest of the car. Probably because air passes over it or some such reasoning. I wouldn't worry about it though and my cap has no ground wire and I don't plan on installing one. But my fuel inlet certainly is grounded with a bonding wire. Of course, my body is plastic. At least my car's body is.
