It's listed in the accessory catalogue, however, its says it will be available at a later date. Best to call one of the US dealership's parts department and inquire if and when it will be available. Part # F151 V4 640F

Also take a look at www.fueldoors.com. If you are so inclined you can get an eletronic fuel door controlled by remote.

chrome gas door

I believe that is an aftermarket/accessory item. Contact your dealer to see if they have it. I think they have 2: a "satin" finish (which is a bit duller) and the aluminim/chrome finish which is shinier.

Actually you have to be a little careful; Jason's accessories are the JDM accessories so you're paying for shipping, customs, etc.

You are much better off if Mazda offers the accessory through your dealer (for example, the rotary valve caps are around $60 on Jason's site and I think in the neighborhood of $30 from a Mazda dealer; on the other hand the Start Button isn't available at all in the U.S...)

Yup, but the gas cap isn't availble in the US last time I checked, so Jason's price is pretty good :D

How does this guy stay in business!!! He's literally 50-150% higher than the dealer or some place like Mazdatrix. I guess I just answered my own question.....all he needs to do is sell one item a week.

Regarding the shiny gas cap cover, I hate fake stuff and that thing is horribly fake. Can you live with yourself knowing that there's a metal flap on your car with a dozen fake fastener heads? Gross...

wow those parts are amazing, lets every 8 owner really add his own touch and flare. The aluminum gas cap should probably be stock on all 8's....

Really? Hummm guess you should come to JAPAN and see our prices. Of course there is always room to negotiate especially for my repeat, customers.

Shipping is included like mentioned. Its EXPRESS mail with insurance. I can always send them NORMAL mail and then they would be cheaper then anyone on the planet. So its up to you
but the prices are a BASE price, the YEN does go up and down so I have to make a medium, and if you like to bash we can talk else where.

Japan and the US are 2 different countries, you are aware of this?

Jt, that "Coming Soon" .gif is starting to get annoying on your U.S.A. parts section :p when are you gonna open that up? i can't wait to see your prices on domestic parts, i know they'll be comparable or lower than other vendors

wait, i don't get it...the USA section is for parts you're bringing to Japan and not just parts you'll be selling from the US to US customers? i don't get what we, in the US, could possibly have that the Japanese people would want...

i say you start selling some domestic parts that don't need to be imported from Japan...also, if you need any help with webpage building i can refer yot to many people good at that stuff...let me know

The only way I could do that is drop shipping and so far I dont trust any of the companies in the states enough to do it.

I import parts for american cars into Japan.
