Unhappy Dose this look right?

Ive noticed yesterday while changing my Diff fluids that the seam on my gas tank is starting to go on me and I touched it and can smell the gasoline seeping through. So far its barely a seepage but that wont hold up through the winter. Dose this look like it would make a good replacement with minimal alterations to the body. I know the top filler mount needs to go and I would mount the pickup there. If not, any suggestions for websites to find a good uni fuel tank/cell that would do the job would be appreciated.

I would look into having the tank repaired/replaced before trying to cobble in one that's not made for the car. I have a couple spare S3 tanks, I think one is for an SE but it will need boiled and sealed. I can probably refurbish one for you but it may take a bit to find a place to work on it. PM me if interested.
