Thank you. Everyone questioned me in the beginning but it looks great in the sun.

Here is a little more info about the side marker fuel filler. I used a '03 Chevy 2500 fuel neck and a 06 Ford "cup" (no idea what the real term is) to attach the neck to the fender. Since I planned on doing this long before I painted the truck I started mocking it up on the fender before body work started. We then got the box for the bed completed abd on the frame so I could mock up the fender and get final placement. We then welded in the "cup" and I attached the filler neck as you see it. Then we took everything apart and painted it. It was a little extra work this way but it is very sturdy and works extremely well.
