Door Panels Custom Made
Looking to see if anyone can point me in a direction for custom vinyl or leather door panels or material already stiched for a 68 C10 door panel
Something with a more hot rod feel to it than the oem metal or vinyl covered metal panels

Re: Door Panels Custom Made
I went to the local shop and bought the panel board and covered it myself. I want to change it out to a nicer pattern but for now it serves the purpose well.
I started by cutting the pattern out that would cover the whole door. Then I used self starting sheet metal screws to temerary mount it. Once I had it in place I took and drilled the holes out for the plastic Christmas tree's to hold it in place. I put them through the board and then covered it with the leather.
