Hi, time has come to sort out my coupe doors, I did 2 of them a few years back with Wadham's trim line panels but he no longer sells them (at least not for a long while anyway) does any body know another source for good quality repair panels?
I need drivers side front and rear.
thanks!
Will

He doesn't do them either, does nobody produce them anymore?
Looks like I may have to undulge in a bit of panel beating!

If the doors only had a single curve it would be a doddle, but sadly they do not.
I tried reskinning a front door with a piece of flat sheet and it looked OK until it was painted. It was then obviously wrong !
Good luck !

Ah, that could be the fly in the ointment them, haven't got an english wheel sitting around so a compound curve could prove difficult!
Looks like I may have to do the lower part panel repair then, wonder why nobody does the trim line panels anymore...

I agree Will. The bottom repair seems a stupid idea to me, as its very difficult to acheive a good result without distortion and lots of filler, not to mention introducing either a stepped joint or a weld line low down where it can quickly corrode from the inside.
Under the trim strip seems more of a natural place to me, and also helps to conceal the joint.
