After a pattern to make my own or a cheap set of front & rear door cards for my soon to be stripped caged 6 ...There were people selling them for £5 a while back !

Would love a set of Carbon ones but Don't want to pay hundreds for Carbon ones ...unless someone has a cheap set lying about ...Fibreglass ones would do as long as they are black ...

    This is exactly what I did a couple of years ago. Day you've seen inside my 6 all I did was make cardboard templates of the door and of each side of the rear quarter panel hole and then bought some cheap 1 or 2 mm perspex and cut it to shape then wrapped it in cheap carbon wrap. Attached the rears with tiger seal and the fronts with flat self tapping screws simples.

    That would be bloody amazing !!!!
    Fibreglass with Blk pigment sounds great !!!

    Would love Carbon but not with how much just the material costs Wayne ....let alone the making of it ...

    Wayne a question
    Is it possible without loads of work to build into the Blk Fibreglass door panel a Angled pod on each side sort of facing towards each seat for my Electric Windows switch . ..so I don't have to make a MDF one to screw on top ?

    I've been told all the electric Window / Mirror switches are the same size & shape on the outside ....I'm sure others would love this & I can't go manual because of my door bars in the way ...see see

    Could you not use a universal surface mount pod for the window switches damien?

    Just had a look on ebay, i can only find them in full kits with universal motors etc but you could email them to see if you could buy just the pods.

    I found them but in Australia and postage is terrible

    Brilliant Ben Thumbs up

    That's the sort of thing I'm thinking of ....it's a great back up plan Ben Thumbs up

    I ....Wonder if Wayne could be really clever & lay some Humps into the Blk coloured Fibreglass panels so they are all in one to fit the originals ????
