Looks wicked man, hard to do?

can you put up some instuctions on hwo you did it as im keen to do mine soon to get the interior looking smick as

nice work, i like

for my TF it was quite easy just a matter of taking taking of door panels and undoing a few screwed to get to the fabric panels. The panels with the carpet on them were a ***** to get off so used a hair dryer to heat up glue and take off the carpet.

stretching of the vinal was needed to mold it around the curves... used clothes pegs to hold the vinal in place while it dried (suggest using something in between vinal and pegs so they dont leave peg marks...

make sure u leave yourself alot of excess around.. you can always cut it off rather than having to cut a new piece

its 11:30 it took me 5 hours to do the other 3 doors :S... but its finally done :cool: and it looks sweet as :) heres some photos of the work and finished result...

WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T USE 'BOSTIK' SPRAY ON ADHESIVE!! ITS A POS :rant:

Fuller is slightly better...and I have no idea where to get the 3M stuff. Better still, go to clark rubber, and ask them for proper stuff...stuff u paint on

ShmicK! how much would that vynil set u back? enough to do the whole job?

cost me $11 a metre for the vinal from spotlight... i got 2 metres and i still had a ****load left so cost me $22 for vinal.

The glue was just a leather/fabric craft glue that you can get from spotlight aswell... it was $15 for a 500 ml bottle... it sticks nice and hard coz on the back of the vinal is a cotton underlay.

if i did it again there would be a few things i would have payed closer attention to. I.e. the corners and making sure i dont cut the vinal too short... but all in all im happy with the result :D :D :D

:D :D

Nice to see your bringing up the old threads for us interior Newbies

JPEG!, plz too good tell me that u kept ur old fabric form the inserts?

Hey thats cool dude! Love your instructions!
Well done.

That is %1000 correct.
ive doen the doors aswell, bostik stuff from bunnings is a complete waste of time, i got some to do this project, i used 1 spary and i have the rest of the bottle still sitting round the house.
i ended up getting a spary adhesive from clarke rubber aswell, only problem is the price, lol, $40 just for adhesive, mind you this stuff is the Shiat. it is soo good it holds carpet to sub boxes no problems at all. very impressed with them!
