Product Description
QAA Stainless Steel Gas Cap Door Trim for the 1997-2005 Buick Century and Regal Sedan (GC37540)
The Buick Century and Buick Regal sedans of 1997 through 2005 are both covered by a single QAA part, GC37540. It is a single piece of polished stainless steel that dresses up the fuel door on either 4-door sedan, and it is the kind of small detail that catches the eye at every fill-up.
Important: this is a cover, not a replacement
Read this before you order. GC37540 is not a replacement gas cap and it is not a replacement fuel door. It is a trim piece that mounts on top of your existing gas door, so the original door must still be on the car. If your door is missing or broken, fix that first. This trim needs a sound door underneath to bond to.
One part, two Buicks
Both applications cover the same nine model years:
- the Buick Century from 1997 to 2005
- the Buick Regal from 1997 to 2005
Both are listed as 4-door sedans. The Fitment tab shows each car on its own line with its years and body style, so you can match yours at a glance. If you own one of these Buicks but are unsure whether it matches, call Quality Automotive Trims at 877-752-3811 with the year and model before ordering.
Material and finish
The piece is made in the USA from 26-gauge 304 stainless steel and polished to a mirror shine. On a fuel door that bright finish works as a focal point. It pairs well with other bright accents on the car, and it gives an otherwise plain panel a finished look. Because it is solid stainless steel and not a chrome-plated plastic, the shine is the metal itself.
Mounting
The trim attaches with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape and installs directly over the existing surface of the gas door. You do not drill and you do not remove the door. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without damaging the surface. It is a single piece, so the work is quick: clean the door, test the alignment, peel the liner, and press it on. The Installation tab spells out the steps, including the check that your original door is in place.
Specs and questions
Part number GC37540 carries its own UPC, which is listed in the Specs tab with the material, piece count, and origin. The FAQ tab answers the questions we hear most about gas door trim, especially whether it replaces the cap. It does not. If you are finishing a Century or Regal with other QAA stainless accents, matching this part to them keeps the bright finish consistent around the car. Have the part number handy when you call, and we can answer fitment questions quickly.
For both cars the covered years are 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, and 2005. Note the part number GC37540 and UPC 691821383764 if you are matching an existing parts list or an older order.

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.
