Removing rattles is a very time consuming job and takes experience, this is something which seperates the good shops from the others ... ....

Yep...those plastic pieces in the fuel door were the exact cause of the rattle. I just used electrical tape to "thicken up" the metal "strips" so the plastics slide in snug...no more rattle from the fuel door after that.
