Default My Stingray Script Semi Custom Door Panel Inserts..

My Interior is finally starting to take shape. I think these inserts will blend in really good with my black and red accented interior. Any opinions on the lower door panel trim will be welcomed. As far as also painting it red or leave as is. .

I love it! I am doing something similar as I can't stand the wood veneer, does not seem to go with anything, like it was installed as an afterthought.
Not sure what you are asking on the lower door trim?
In the area inside the u shaped chrome trim just under the armrest, I am going to make that section the body color, along with the top trim piece you have pictured here. I will be using the same material that is in my 2 tone Mr mike seat covers, so it will be a leather like material, but same concept.
I like the idea of bringing the body color into the interior, kind of ties everything together like it was designed as a complete package. Also it breaks up the interior from being a sea of 1 color.

Man, that looks good. Did you buy or make those pieces? Might set a piece of red carpet like on the deluxe panels on the bottom and see how it looks.

Those are sharp....It would be cool if the script was backlit.

That is a good job on the customization and bringing in the color. Is it a type of carbon fiber weave, or carbon fiber look? Its pretty good the way it is in the photos.

Door panels look good with only the 'script' plate.

Look's very nice, professionally done. Lower panel not for sure about it. You don't want to take away from the Stingray panel. Your hood looks interesting...Great work..
