Weird.... Why would anyone take a gas cap?
Roundel or M badge etc I can understand, but gas cap?

Not sure why anyone would have a gas cap lying around......
You'll likely have to head to the dealer.

Yeah, I thought it a bit strange myself. Just thought I'd ask.

I have a gas cap for sale. It's from a 2006 metallic black Z4M coupe.

It's located just minutes from the greater Atlanta area.

Let me know if you want it ba...I mean, interested in purchasing it.

Isn't the gas door locked when the car is locked? How does anyone get to your gas cap without breaking open the gas door?

In any case, you should be able to find a replacement at your local part store. It's relatively inexpensive...no need to head over to the dealer for this.

Car wasn't locked, ran into a store for a minute. I'll check the local parts store. Thanks

Have you tried a wrecking yard?

I don't think it's a "Z car" specific part.

Seems like it would be a throw away part to them......that is of course until you want one....then it's gold plated!

They are around $25 on eBay for brand new OEM caps; just make sure you get the right part number for your car.
