Looks like $15 to me. Claims to fit 2006 S2000 a car which has the text "Check Fuel Cap" on the dash.

I bought my 2000 AP1 in Washington State, where they used to use crazy machines to chemically measure exhaust and gasoline vapor leaks. They told me that I needed a new fuel cap, even though it didn't look damaged to me. The local Honda dealer charged $30, but I don't remember how long ago it was. The one thing I recall is that it was a different color. One was black, one was gray. The car passed the inspection after that, so I assume that Honda changed the threading or spring strength so that evaporated fuel vapor was no longer escaping through the cap.

One funny thing is that the emissions inspections guy asked me to give him my old fuel cap. I said no, because I figured it was valuable as a backup. He explained that some people were buying the new part, passing the emissions test, and then returning the new cap for a refund. I explained that I care about the environment, and didn't want Washington to end up with acid rain like California, but I was going to keep both the new and old caps and use the new one. I only wanted the old one in case the new one totally failed. Fortunately, this guy stopped trying to take the old cap from me. Weird.

p.s. Now Washington State has removed all of the fancy, scientific testing gear, and in its place are computers that read the ODB2 port to ask the car whether it's creating emissions. I guess they didn't predict that Volkswagon and Toyota would falsify the emissions in the car's firmware. It didn't make sense to me, but it seemed like every two weeks when I got emissions inspections, the state had completely replaced all of their equipment. I used to enjoy seeing chemical analysis of all the elements in the exhaust (I have gas, diesel, and electric cars), but now it's all fake.
