uhpolstering door panels...

Hey guys,

the time has come to have my door panels re-done.... I have a grey interior right now, and I'm not changing the basic color scheme... Has anybody else here gotten their door panels done? any pics? suggestions?

Dan

My wife re-upholstered my door panels with black vinyl.. I don't have a pic of them yet, but I'll try to get one tomorrow. Looks good up against the grey plastic handles, trim and carpet..

It's not too hard if you keep the original panels. Mine had been cut up and full of speakers (car has been owned by an idiot: interior looked like ****), so we made new panels. Because the material we used was a little too thick, the panels are now a thight fit.
My mother has done the work on the leather, my dad (on the pic, btw: the guy with the white shirt) did the panels. I installed them

I must say you have a beautiful car. Those headlights and hood scoop are what I wanted to do to mine, and they work together very well.

Yes, all very correct. I kinda want to be a drill SGT when I get around to that rank, Recruiter isnt my thing I dont think, lol. I guess it would be ok, I dont know, lol. Anyway, I just wanted to say I love you car, I never really looked at it until today, and boy is it nice .
