Default Durangos Door panel inserts

Got these door panel inserts from Durangoboy about a month ago. I finally got around to painting and installing them last weekend.Thanks Durangoboy!!! I was thinking about bolting a stingray emblem to them ,but now Im leaning to maybe a decal with the corvette script in black.Has anyone ever modified their door panels too! Id like to see some.After painting the center pieces I always thought something else was missing.







Even the cupholder got it!!

My son works at a sign shop and he could make some nice decals for the red inserts on the door panels. Send me a PM if you are interested and I'll put you in touch with him.

You're very welcome.

I think a Corvette script and a shark would look cool in there. A decal would be cool as well if you could make sure your arm didn't wear it down over the years.

I didn't make them, they are stock door inserts for the premium trim. Mine just had the wood grain decal removed and I cleaned them up.

77 actually came with a sorta-glossy black insert instead of the woodgrain.

I meant script. The emblem could be cool too but might stick out too much.

That is a very tastful custom interior. I like the idea of custom color on stock parts. I would leave it as it is and if you think it needs some thing on the inserts I would go with cross flag emblems.
