I didn't go a great job of documenting the process here, frankly I changed my plans about a gazillion times so it wouldn't have made sense anyway. I will take better pics during the passenger side.

I think it came out pretty good and solved the problems at hand. Couldn't completely solve the problem of your feet clipping the panel (near the speaker) when you are getting out, getting over the door bar and pulling your leg in tight with the supports on the seat is just tough. Maybe I need to take some yoga and limber up!
I know it looks like a lot of body filler but the bulk of shape was created with florist foam and then a thin layer of fiberglass cloth, then a sweep of filler. Panel is actually fairly lightweight.


I will blend the upper plastic panel into the lower here, still to come.


Tried to carry the arm rest such that it followed the door bars, not really to hide them but just made sense to the eye. These two pieces are removable and actually pretty complicated hollow parts. I'll get some pics during construction on the pass side.


I don't like the way the arm rest cuts off the speaker but I couldn't get around this, made a couple of attempts but they just didn't look right. I am going to make a lower flange on the speaker grill right about the arm rest so it appears the cut off circle was purposeful. It's gonna mean some work on the press to reshape the speaker grill.


The door pull is bolted to the door so it not only is sturdy for closing the door but also serves to pull the door panel in tight.
There will be an separate insert panel here. Plan for now is leather on the entire door panel with the insert being either carbon or alcantara.
