I've seen a picture of that MB plastic bag awhile back.

I'll certainly take care of that fuel filler compartment!
I'm going to make sure all area's are secured from water getting inside by the time I'm finished.
Edit: I'm also going to add RTV Silicone Sealant around the plate of the existing gasket that holds the Fixed SRT Spoiler Wing in place so that I get an extra seal of protection. I read and saw pictures on funfor2's thread with the how to of 1 inch sections on both sides of the mounting plate showing water getting through that gasket which was obviously a major cause of water intrusion besides just replacing the o-rings. I'm also going to be adding sealant around the holes in that area of where the O-Rings meet. Its good to take the extra pre-caution.
My fellow SRT-6 Owners:
Start taking your wings apart and re-seal these area's, replace those o-rings as well. Take the time to do it now before it IS too late. I can tell you, its bound to happen eventually, give it a shot and do it.
Just a Headsup:
You may need an extra person to help you remove the wing though so it may not be a complete one person job.
