Default RS style door panels

I was bored yesterday, so I made some RS style door panels. They're covered in ultra suede.

I like that, its nice

I was thinking of doing something like this too, don't want to remove door panels and have "naked" doors, make some kin do a cover for it

I stripped the old vinyl off, filled in the openings from the speakers and door pocket with cardboard. Used 3m spray adhesive to glue on some med/thick batting to the lower panel. Cut a pattern out of suede and glued it on. It was pretty easy material to work with. The door pulls are braided cloth that are bolted to the door with an M6 bolt. I used rubber grommets on the door panel for them to pass through.

Thanks, I did the center console delete at the same time as the door panels. I made a matching suede shift boot also.

Do you have a pic of the dash modifications (where the console originally mounted)?
What did you do there?

I didn't really mod the dash. I just unbolted the center console as a complete unit and then fit some new carpet to the tunnel.
