upholstering door panels/custom interior UPDATE:Tutorial Up

[619 CUSTOMS]

hey whats up everyone, ok so ive been throwing around the idea of redoing my door panels and finishing up the color match on my trim pieces...so i just went out today and bought the new fabric and started on my back door, and finished both. really satisfied with the work...got some tips from tgc member vorcatec, but decided to go with different techniques and they worked great.

vorcatec wasnt able to give a real detailed tutorial because he ran short on time, so if enough of you want i can get into detail with a tutorial of my own. i will be posting pics tomorrow. just havent had the chance to upload them...

let me know


**Here are some pics of one of the back doors, just to give everyone an idea and see what you all think. will get more pics posted later**
