Custom Doors
 
So these are a few of the projects I've done in the last month. Let me know what you think. I've been meaning to do a write up (Sorry Sterling) on the doors because it was pretty straight forward, aside from replacing everything.

And to keep the wife happy and make my projects seem cheap!!!!

Any advice on the set up of the center console? I think 5 gauges in one area is to much. I plan on doing three angled over to the driver side instead. Also here are some more pictures of the custom door process.

Good job. Fantastic washer / dryer set, too!
Remember you need the vapor barrier to keep the material from curling. You should paint the back side of the panel heavily with some kind of latex sealant, I think.

How do you close the door from the inside? Roll window down, grab outer door skin,pull, roll window up?

Someone else told me the same thing Sterling, I guess it might be a good idea.

As far as closing the door...i've moved into a house and well cant find the handles. She is not drivable right now due to a rear axle that is being replaced. When I find the handles I'll take a better picture.
