have tried a few different door trim design's and came up with this one has the wood in between the chrome and will probably put
a eh front gaurd special badge down the bottom at the front just above the chrome strip when I find 4
i will be using the same colour vinly as per the seats and arm rests that I made (cut down front one)
the colour of the mdf board im using is close to the seat colour so it gives you an idea on how it will look minus the tape :ebiggrin:
still need to pull the vinly tighter on the arm rest aswell


also some pics of the front end with the Rack brackets and engine mounts on
