Official: Post your custom door panel pics

[Cletonius]

Working on these for my e36 sedan as practice, then I'm going to do a set for the e30 coupe.

e36 version is getting a German flag and e30 is getting badass spiderwebs.

Hey Gregg,
What kind of board are you using? Is that the stock card? The door cards in my car need some TLC.

Hey Josh! It's actually 1/8" Dibond (also goes by the name of Alupanel) It's a hybrid aluminum panel, a plastic core sandwiched by two thin sheets of aluminum. Very strong and light for being 1/8", very easy to route/jigsaw/cut.

If you like where it's going, you can follow my e36 build thread over on BF.c...

I will be doing my e30 panels Late Dec/ early January I think, since the coupe's door panels are camel colored, and pretty beat up too.

I'm printing and laminating graphics today!

Is there a build thread or any details on what speakers he used and the fiber glassing for them?

Anymore awesome interiors? Anyone ever run houndstooth door panels with black leather seats? Maybe shift and e brake boot houndstooth too.

What is this madness???

Boom, now I get to start the process all over for the e30!

neat

While I can appreciate the work you put into building those, and they seem to have come out really well built, I think they are a little flashy compared to the rest of the car.

still gotta do the door cards

My car is not for everyone, very industrial/no frills.

I like the unique part of the sheet metal door cards (or what ever material they are). BUt I think the stock door card design is well thought out, I dont think I could get rid of it.
