Re: tank covers

I used black vinyl to cover mine. Matched the floor.

Re: tank covers

I did mine with the same fabric as the doors and visors. Glued to Panel made by upholstery shop. A friend of mine did one similar with cloth only and used velcro as fastener. Easy to do. John

Re: tank covers

Hers a couple of mine not the best. 3 pices of sheet metal. I had a fab shop make and paint.They couldnt make it out of 1 pice to big They put the grooves to match the ones in the door. I have the steel door panels. And the top is J chanel so it just slides up and in. The J chanel is painted black just like the doors and its the same hight so it looks factory. The guy added the bowtie on his own, I dont care for it but everyone likes it. I have the factory buckest and the seams are covered.
