Default Chrome gas door peeling again.

Anyone having any triouble with this. I got my original one replaced last year on warrenty because it bubbled and peeled. just last night when i was filling up I noticed the new one was peeling again. I think the cover is a cheap cast material. they seem to start peeling during the winter with all salt and crap on the road and truck. i try my best to keep the H2 fairly clean but you can only do so much during the winter. nyhow I was thinking about changing it out to a powder coated black one. Does powder coating resist the elements better? I was looking at this one. Anyone have any other suggestions.

I had that on one of mine. I sold to a freind and it did the same thing. But my Real Wheels locking fuel door was next to bullet proof.

If they don;t warranty it, I would go that route. You can get them in locking or non-locking. I just put a locking one today on the SUT.
5 minute install! Done, and feel a little better about some tree hugger putting something in the tank.

I'll have to check out the real wheels one. Is powder coat much more durable?
