Post by jamesingarage »

Has any one replaced the outer door sins on any of their doors ?? if so where did you order them from ?? these are for my rear crew doors so door skins are about my only option..

Never personally bought from these guys but I've heard they're ok and lowest price I've seen http://www.rustrepair.com/PANELS/FPU.67CAB.HTM Of course, the usual people carry them, DC, LMC, and NPD.

I did, they worked well... I am in the process of now smoothing out the doors to make it all look good prior to prime and paint. I'll post the pics when done. You can see I did some other rust repairs while I was at it!! Got them at NPD.

Got mine from Mac's(because they're only an hr away)and they sucked, as with most repop's the metal form is flawed. If you only need to do the bottom you can buy just the bottom panel. If you need to re-skin the whole door....I suggest finding another door :2cents: These are my door's.. http://fordification.com/forum/viewtopi ... &start=225 I didn't get any after pic's ,but hind site is 20/20 and I should've put them through a roller first. From the bump down the bottom flare they were concave(flat)and they should have an arc to them. With a form and way to much bondo...I got them close.... http://fordification.com/forum/viewtopi ... &start=225
I've had enough and I'm not alone

This is the same problem i am having, when i try to get the arc they cave in and im no body man.. so i let a "body guy" do them and he just made them worse, so like you said im going to look for 2 good doors and steal the skins off them, lucky that the rear doors on my crew are about 10" shorter so ill have some play room and i got mine from NPD and tiwain made.

Thanks for the input 67mann
