Hello, I’m after a decent not perfect set of door panels rear quarter panels and a horseshoe all in the same shade of beige for my cabby. Front speaker covers would be a bonus.
Please let me know what you got....
Thanks

I have 2x front door cards - but the postage is a killer...

Do you have beige ones already?

I’m not saying no,
But I have already got beige panels and they are all different shades.
Front panels are faded rear ones are very very faded and horseshoe is black :-(
Have you got a photo of it?
Thanks

If you are up for a bit of ‘elbow grease’ have you thought of using vinyl paint and re-painting yours?

As long as you do the prep work and use the correct paint & process specific for vinyl & plastics the results are pretty spectacular.

Have a look at my build thread - I have the ‘Natur’ interior. The door cards and beige interior parts were all different shades of beige.
But painting them brought them back to life.

Buying piecemeal parts may yield different colours.

Full disclosure: I am in Australia where the sun is pretty harsh on our interiors - so fading is pretty common.

I think doing the job myself is the only way forward.

Thank you very much all for your input...

Stay safe!
