razuuk004 Posted March 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 So have you picked a color? yeah. I've mentioned them on this forum.

razuuk004 Posted March 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 This is how my doors use to look like and light up before My Build Logs: Door Panels: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/177508-door-panels-starting-new-02-civic/page-20 Speaker Box: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/160740-need-help-designing-a-box/ Carbon Fiber: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167381-carbon-fiber-use-this-forum-to-show-off-your-custom-parts/ Headliner: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/174476-headliner-re-invented-for-02-civic/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldsoundguy Posted March 25, 2014 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 Sorry must have missed the color.

JNells Posted March 25, 2014 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 I'm not hating or taking anything away from your old doors, bc it looks damn good too. But the one you've been working on is above and beyond better IMO... This is one of the best (if not the best) door build/thread I've seen in the forums. Most helpful and detailed for sure! But I have to ask....... How in the hell do you intend on repeating the process for the other side to make them somewhat exact?! Lol! That's the problem with making a one of a kind door, you have to make 2 matching, one of a kind doors. Haha I have no doubt you'll pull it off, but man that cannot be an easy task..

No it's not easy but you learn one thing when doing adjasent work. We make patterns and templates for almost any shape you may have to incorporate to the other side. The cut-out can be copied with soft cardboard from the back of the door and flipped around to trace on the other door. those acrylic pieces are flush trimed from a mdf template i kept. The shape of the tweeter pod from a cardboard template. the only thing i would have to work hard at is the shapping of the body filler to mirror the first door. But to all reading, the true way of doing it, which i did not, is to do both doors at the same time, but my eagerness took my first door far too forward for me to stop and start on the next. Don't make my mistake. and do both projects together.

JNells Posted March 26, 2014 Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 I made the same mistake when doing my pods and made one first, and it was a PITA trying to recreate it on the other side. I made all my pieces/templates at once, but matching the shape/contours was no picnic, and mine isn't even close to the level of detail of yours (not even in the same ball park lol)... you have your work cut out my friend. Forgot to mention, I absolutely love that cf trim ring around the speaker pod, and with those colors, the contrast is going to look sick!!! I'm already loving the contrast of it against the primer. I do have a question about your light holes that I asked about before... Since you have Lambo style doors, will any of those LEDs be plainly seen when the door is open? The actual bulbs not the light they emit. Malibu Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The actual bulbs not the light they emit. i'm going to push the bulb in until they are flush with the panel on the bottom holes and the arm rest holes as well but, yes, when the lambo is up you will see them. But with the lambo down, they will glow to the ground and on the speaker/ring.
