Thanks for posting this! I like the concept and it looks like you can add a little customizing too.

Nowhere Man

that should feel good in the summer

Looks good, but not for me.....

Richard454

That's pretty neat!!!




Let me guess which one you like!!!



Yep- a lot better than the black vinyl...And being aluminum it will cool a lot faster too...

Although in the winter- black might be a better choice...

You have to be careful you don't dent them.

Nowhere Man

So you don't think left in the hot sun it won't burn you or send a glare to blind you.

LT1M21Vette

That would be perfect for a track car.

Here you go-

The Punisher

I would like to see one with the door pull and latch handle installed

Butt ugly,tacky & they even throw in the Mexican tuck & roll. Would look great with a rattle can paint job & **** carpet.

Richard Daugird

I have to agree. They look cool in a stripped down drag car, but I wouldn't want them in my 'Vette.

I kinda like them and depending on the Corvette that I might install them on would dictate to me if I need to cover them in a felt material or leave them alone or even do some trick powdercoating to them.

I might use them as 'plug' and make a mold and then make them out of carbon fiber if that was the 'look' I was going for. These panels would save numerous hours in tooling.

For a race car, they are easy to fabricate for far less cost than what they want.

I like the idea, i dont like the ones with extra stuff on them like the skull or chevy bow tie, since they already insist upon themselves,

They would look good in a road race theme car but like a turd in a punch bowl on a stocker

I would hate that i would think they would get lots of dings easy,

I would never pay their asking price,
im too cheap,

Mike was involved with making fiberglass and carbon door panels many years ago and like with most things he did he never finished it, the prototypes were sweet,
I would think some people would like molded door panels if they fit well,

That's called "diamond pleated". Was popular, in vinyl material, in custom cars in the 50s-60s.

What goes out of style...in now back in-

C7 "tunnel drapes!!!"

Richard Daugird

Yep, diamond pleats are badass!

The13Bats

Yep,
Here is a motion performance car with its custom seats and door panels, very sweet wish it was in my 69,


That extra lever is for the hone o overdrive...
