Re: Door skin replacement ?

If you are not use to doing that kind of work it can be challanging. The door skin has to be hammered over on the flaps and if not real carfull you canput them on crooked and really screw up the bodylines of your truck. Care must be taken as well when folding the flaps or you will end up wiping the area around the perimeter ,that is quite common. I am not trying to talk you out of doing it I just want you to be aware of the pitfalls. I have a SHARK. It is a door shinning tool that helps fold the flaps over but it is quite expensive for a person to have in their toolbox that does'nt do that type of thing on a regular basis. There are however less expensive door skin" helpers" I was looking in the new AutobodyToolmart catthat came in todays mail. Check them out, you might find something in there to help with your project. Good luck and happy sanding, remember it is called bodywork and not bodyfun for a reason
