Door Insert DIY

Very nice! 8) Got my door done tonight...and will finish the other doors tomorrow. Will post pics soon!

didn't know there were gonna be that many people doin it after i posted it up. great job guys, there are still a few wrinkles that need to get worked out.

Kelli, cant wait to see pix

Thanks! I'm gonna post them next week, as soon as I finish off the roll when I get my underbody lights!!! 8)

sweet, u got wayyyy more stuff than me, but then again, most ppl do.....

sux being broke

so since many people have done it, what fabric did you guys use???

finished all my doors. the right doors seemed harder than the left doors. but i finally got the fabric tucked away.

theres several types of fabric to use. theres satin, the one that is mentioned in the DIY. only problem is that it stains when ANY liquid gets on it. i used this nylon material that was about as thin as the satin but didnt get the shine. so its up to you, i guess the important thing is that you like it, its thing enough to tuck in, and it wont stain(unless you have the time to take it all out clean and put it back in everytime something stains it)

Did you guys forget about the OG? :cry:

Trust me Ruben no one has forgetten bout tha OG

Hey 2003C-RollaCE, did you get that idea from Vamp from Corolla Customz?

I remeber doing that to my 99 rolla last summer, i must have chose the bulkiest fabric ever! I think it was black fleece. Surprisingly all the doors except for the driver's side looked good.

hehe, no i didnt, i wanted to do what ruben did but i figured, just having leather like doors wont look cool unless the seats are dont and i didnt wanna take the door apart so playing around, the card thing worked with this rag and i figured what the hell its only 3 bux, i'll try it....

wattup everyone. just wanted to let you guys know that after a long time of thinkin whether or not i should do the door inserts, i finally did it and it looks great. thanx for the diy achint. i'm not sure what kind of fabric i used, i just saw it at the fabric store and it was a perfect color match. hehe. i'll post pics asap. peace!

good job, it just adds something else to the interior

hey intel, when did you get rims, or is that chopped

haha man you been gone a long time. i got rims, trd cai, and trd exhaust.











ok fine, i'm pulling your chain. i choppped it. it was my first try. just seeing what it looks like with the rs6 rims on it

awww, shit i was gonna say bro, u said u were broke, did u max out your CC's

but i'm am soo excited, get cable modem today so i can go online at home atleast. looks good, cant wait to see your entry for the contest, i'll help ya if you want. i'm always open to questions over AIM or via PM, last time i was gonna help a few people but i lost internet cuz of the move and couldn't

thats coo. yea i am broke, but i've been working so i've been getting some cash flow. i'll see what i can pull off in the contest, maybe something good maybe not.

I finally got the chance to do my inserts this weekend. Turned out really nice. I painted the center console and the little plastic pieces where the power window switch is also. suprisingly it only took 2 hour to get everything done. 8)
I'll post pics hopefully tonight when I get my digi cam back from a friend.

I want to do mine, but i have no idea what color. My car is the mineral opalescent (i think) or something like that. A silver/gray color

how about just str8 up green, that will look good too and be fairly original

yea i'd say if you can find a green that matches your car get that, or a nice dark green will look good.

on a Mineral Green Opalescent color light green is a pretty good color to use or biege if you want it to match the interior color. I have the same color car so heres what it looks like with light green inserts:

here are some pics of my door inserts:

I was thinking about the white. Anyone have pics of them with a gray interior?

Thought id be a little different and have a little style lol tell me if u think this will look good

just anotgher picture not the final thing i will probably order a different color of gucci.

has anybody tried to use leather? i'm thinking about changing mine to silver leather. i think it would give it a more natural look. i think the only problem i can predict is that it won't fit because it's too thick. what do you guys think?
