LoL . At a recent car show there was a guy selling an 89 that had the inner door skins of 1993, talk about a mismatch.

I spent a good deal of time on this. You do not want to do the cheapo ebay stick-on route. You be unhappy and end up stripping it off. Been there, done that with my '88 Vert. Pay the price and get the top end kits from Corvette Central. They are made by a company by the name of Classic Wood Designs (the don't sell to the public) and they look like OEM. They are an exact fit and the screw holes line up perfectly. Really looks stunning; I can't tell you how many people have stopped me in a parking lot and commented on how it looks. Spend the dough and you'll be glad you did.
