Default Door Panels

My door panels on my 81 are preety sad. I was going to buy some new replacement ones, but was told by that the quality was poor and best to have then redone upholsterer.

Has anybody found the quality of these any good or should I have the ones I own just redone?

Thanks in advance.

I have always heard good things about Willcox, corvette america, and most of the vendors here on the site as offering good ones. I just installed carpet form Willcox and it fit perfectly. I would assume if they do the carpet for a 79 perfect, they should do the doors that way also.

Order them, if you don't like them I am sure you can send them back. I don't think an upholster would let you do that.

I recently got new door panels from Willcox. They were great quality and fit perfectly! They were for my 72, but I'm sure all years are great.

The door panels are excellent quality! You won't have any issues and if you don't like them yes, you can return them.

If you go to sale thread you'll find a coupon code to use too!
