Product Description
Pontiac Grand Prix Sedan 1997-2003 Stainless Gas Door Cover (GC37280)
For the 1997-2003 Pontiac Grand Prix 4-door sedan, GC37280 turns the painted fuel door into a polished stainless accent. The part is a single piece of 304 stainless steel, 26 gauge, made in the USA. It mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, so there's nothing to mix, drill or bolt.
One condition
The 1997-2003 Grand Prix has to keep its gas door: GC37280 is not a replacement cap or replacement part, and the existing door must be there to install it.
Listed vehicle
Pontiac Grand Prix, 1997-2003, 4-door sedan, seven model years on a single row. The Fitment tab has it.
Matching pillars
Two pillar post sets are cross-listed for the same sedan: PP37280 with four pieces and PP37281 with six. The catalog doesn't say what the additional pair in the six-piece set covers. The listing photos show the coverage, and we can talk it through on the phone.
Mounting, and what QAA says about the tape's lifetime
The trim fits over the Pontiac's existing gas door. QAA says the tape will hold for a lifetime with no damage to the sedan's surface, which is why surface prep matters most.
Is your door ready?
Run through a quick check. Does the fuel door pop open and latch shut cleanly? Does it sit level with the quarter panel? Is the paint on its face intact, with no flaking, chalkiness, or clear coat lifting at the edges? If anything fails, fix it first, since the tape grips the paint directly.
Cleaning that actually works
On a Grand Prix of this age, clean off any old wax first. Wash with soapy water, rinse, and wipe with degreaser until a fresh section of cloth comes away clean. Allow it to dry.
Positioning tips
Keep the liner on for the dry fit. Close the door and place the trim, then step back. You're looking for an even strip of paint showing on all sides. A helper can hold it while you look straight on and from an angle. When it's right, put a small piece of painter's tape on the body at one corner.
The final press
Peel the liner, line up with your marker, and press hard over every part of the face. Press a second time after a minute. Open the door gently to make sure the edge clears. The Installation tab repeats these steps.
About the steel
304 stainless with a polished, mirror-like finish. 26 gauge is a thin sheet that keeps the overlay slim on a moving door.
Install day and after
Mild, dry weather, and no water on it overnight. Clean later with gentle soap and a soft cloth, wiping away fuel drips.
A good first piece
One flat part, no partner to line up, and minutes to install. It's a simple way to try the look on the Grand Prix before pillar trim.

Installation tips: Gas Door Cover Trim
- Confirm your vehicle still has its original gas door. This trim mounts over it and does not replace it.
- Unpack the piece and hold it in position to confirm the fit before mounting it.
- Each piece mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, so clean and dry the mounting surface first; the tape needs paint or trim free of dirt and wax.
- Align the piece and press it firmly into place directly over the existing surface, working along its full length so the tape bonds evenly.
- Step back and check alignment before pressing along the full length of the piece.
These are general tips. Follow any instructions packed with your kit if they differ.
