braid11 Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Hoping to buy a pair for my 240. Emailed, is this still available? tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rags Posted November 12, 2011 Author Share Posted November 12, 2011 (edited) ]Getting there! Instead of having the panels covered professionally, I figured why not try to use the stock vinyl and see if it will stretch over the speaker pods. I'm not finished yet but it's getting there!

Rayven14 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 FREAKIN FINALLY!!!!!! I hate Bondo! its not so bad on a flat surface but geez sanding a deep pocket = pain in the (fill in the blank) .... you get it! So the plugs are all but done, another coat of primer a few small holes to fill and a final sanding and they're off to the painter (a different painter) for clear and bada bing bada boom ... molds sometime next week! bout time right? and no one could be happier but me. Now I can get back to my 510 Here are a few pics of the passenger door plug...looks pretty darn good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayven14 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Hey Ragz U got a heat gun? what adhesive are you using? I think the best stuff you could use .... believe it or not! is flooring adhesive. Yes flooring glue. Use a paint brush to apply a thin coat, let it get tacky and apply the vinyl with a heat gun to stretch it (a little) and I think you'll like the result. Be careful with the glue because once the vinyl contacts the fiberglass ... its stuck! literally ... its not coming apart!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rags Posted November 13, 2011 Author Share Posted November 13, 2011 Pete, Good tip with the flooring adhesive, I'll give it a shot. Once I realized heat would make the vinyl more pliable, it stretched much easier. I'm using a good old fashioned blow drier. Works great! I think I'm going to do something different with the design. Something with the bottom section of the panel. Oh, and change the color too to accent the 2004 Lemans Sunset paint on the outside of the car. Stay tuned.

iBang Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Will this be a one time batch of these and then I won't be able to get them again or will they be available into the future? I want some but I'd rather wait until I'm at that point before I plunk down the cash and have to store them for a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want some but I'd rather wait until I'm at that point before I plunk down the cash and have to store them for a year. Who knows? I'll of course keep these molds and barring that idea that I ever have to move and wanna travel lite they'll probably be available. Keep in mind however that its alot easier to make batches instead of one-sie two-sies so that may be an issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
