Got the door panels finished
 

These got painted over the weekend and I installed them tonite. They are very slick so I thought you all would like to see. The doors are 99% done now but I need your opinion. I got those off white arm rests and they appeared at first glance several weeks ago to be too white but they don't seem too bad or do they? I had some rests that were a light gray in color but I had to replace them and wouldn't you know, no exact color reproduction so I was going to dye of paint these. The panels are about the same color they were from the factory, keep in mind the blazer was the yellow color originally. I had thought that I would paint them the same color as the dash but now I am unsure...decisions, decisions! What do you think!?

The door panels are more biege than they look on screen.

I think it looks great. Nice contrast to the green. Keep rockin' it.:metal:

Re: Got the door panels finished
 

looks good I would keep it as is but it is hard to tell from a picture how it realy looks.

Re: Got the door panels finished
 

I would paint the dash pad to match the door panels/arm rests - look great!

Re: Got the door panels finished
 

here's my 2 cents. I would leave them alone, and let mother nature change the color. With that white, with just everyday use, it will get dirty, and when you go to clean it, it won't be as white anymore, problem solved. Atleast, see what happens I say. Trevor

Blazer is coming out good. My opinion. How about painting door panels same color to the dash pad and painting arm rest same color as body on Blazer? That way everything matches enterior/exterior. Its more work but more work pays off.

Re: Got the door panels finished
 

JMHO, but I think it makes a nice contrast as is. What color are your seats going to be, they are the closest to the door panel and should match them

BTW, those floors look way to nice to cover up, I would get a full set of mats. That way you can keep an eye on any rust issues that might pop up by lifting the mat

Where did you find that grommet for the screw on the door under the vent window

Looks great!

Re: Got the door panels finished
 

Don that thing is looking amazing!

Before I can answer your question about the panels, I need to know what color are the seats/carpet going to be?

Re: Got the door panels finished
 

Seats are going back original style plain jane light tan material, I found it with the help of jaros44. The floor is going back with wall to wall black rubber floor mat, not original styling because I can not find that, been looking but I seem to have no luck in this area. Unless anyone out there knows where I can find the original looking black floor mat. The color in the pic is really lighter than it really is so it is somewhat decieving.

Re: Got the door panels finished
 

They (grommets) are original. Seats are a light tan original style vinyl ribbed material for utility buckets. Thanks for the words!

Don, looks like I'm just going to have to see it first hand to give you my full honest opinion... :D

Re: Got the door panels finished
 

Wow that look way cool great job!

Re: Got the door panels finished
 

good night, that thing is beautiful, big brother.

those pics are in the garage under the flourescents. I'd like to see what those colors look like in natural light... but it looks great to me. the utility buckets will match them to a tee.

that K5 has come a long way. and taking your time and doing it right is definitely paying off!! I'm jealous!
