Looks great except for the cigar. I had to compare it to the avatar to figure out what it was, otherwise it's well done!

Looks great! Are those "Roddoors"? I haven't chosen mine yet, still have the steel panels.

Thanks...
No they are homemade...pretty easy too. But I do have Autocad and access to a plotter. So it made it real easy to get the design drawn and plotted to scale and the foam cut out. I actually made them bigger than factory... just a personal preferrence. and the cigar thing was more difficult than I anticipated...but I didn't want to leave it out.

I too was like Brad, about the cigar. Other than that, that is really cool. It will be a one of a kind.

very easy
I used 1/4" vinyl top padding, 3M super weatherstrip adhesive, and tweed. the trimming of the foam was the hardest part. I drew it in Autocad, printed it to scale a couple of times. I took one of the prints and used sprayable craft glue to adhere the drawing to the foam. took an exacto knife and followed the contours, and then removed the paper and glue by running hot water over it and a little elbow grease. I then took 1/8" hardboard from Home Depot, cut it to the size i wanted and used the 3M to attach the foam to the hardboard. I then put the tweed over that. I followed the instructions on the 3M can and it worked out nice. I did do a little research before attempting... I used the search function on this site. I have been thinking about doing this for a few months... so far it's the easiest thing I have attempted on my truck. I have about 80 dollars in this but I bought enough materials to do 4 door panels or more... depending on how much tweed I use.
49.00 for tweed (2 yards) 10.00 for vinyl top padding (1 yard) 15.99 for the 3M 4.99 for 4X8 hardboard |
