Interior Door Mod...

Bringing in some of the exterior black/red stripe...



into the interior door panels...

Before:



After:



I used vinyl tape. This is more of a test, not sure how well it will hold up. The "final" might be next spring, by painting the band and maybe using just a smaller red vinyl pinstripe... who knows?

Looks great! Nice pop in the interior! Maybe a clear vinyl tape over the two stripes for some strength!

Like it a LOT! The wife wants to do hers this winter. For a "temporary" install it looks better than new!

I found out it's pretty difficult to get the vinyl tape to wrap around that rear 90 degree angle without wrinkling (had to throw away a few strips of tape, lol). I ended up using a heat gun to assist me in that area, but still not perfect. Perhaps there is better material to use for this? Overall I'm happy with the results, time will tell if I change it or leave it as is....
