Anyone know where i can find that Chrome looking gas cap lid thing that allot of the Dodge and some Jeeps are wearing recently ..it kind of gives a rugged look to the trucks I've seen them on ..I hope you all know what I'm talking about, if im nuts , ill hunt a pic down but maybe somebody out there can understand the words coming out of my keyboard!

If I am thinking the same as you, I believe the item you may be looking for is:

However, the problem I believe, is that it is unlikely there is anything similar available for the Patriot because our gas filler door is not flat, but has a very distinctive angle across the top fourth.
If anyone *does* find one of the above with the proper bend in it for a Patriot, please do post it here... it would be a nice modification.

there is a smooth Chrome one available for the Compass (82210056AC) but I'm sure it wouldn't work. different fuel filler housings.
can't understand why they DON'T make one for the Pat. the one in the pic would sure look AWESOME! :smiley_thumbs_up:

Sorry but there isn't one available for the Pat. The Pat's fuel lid has a bend in it where as the other's are flat. If there was one I'd have it.

It's possible to buy chromed wiper arms. I'm not to sure what the chromed fuel cap would look like so post us some pics please.

Nice! Thanks for the photos. You should think about the chrome reflective letters for your rear bumper too.
