Most body sheetmetal is 20ga which, is what i would try to stick with. 22ga would be min. and 24ga... might as well glue tinfoil over the cap opening

what i'm going to do is take an aircraft style locking fuel door assy from a sport bike and cut it into the factory fuel door. after it's done, weld it on to the body and fill smooth. that way i can retain my factory stock local of the new fuel door. looks good too.
