Hello All.
So whilst undergoing my 110 project I had an idea to make some door trims to tidy up any unsightly bits of my door bottoms where it would make sense to cover rather than straighten the doors.
This idea kind of came about when I looked at door chequer plate but it wasnt really what I was after in terms of style and the fact that there wasnt much choice available anyway.
So I went ahead after speaking to a couple of people and got out the tools and made these up.
Ive called them armour trim but really I think they are more aesthetic but they will prevent further door damage to an extent and will hide warps or rot - but obviously it would be best to treat your doors first with a fix.
I have a few more bits in the works, but I wouldnt mind some feedback on these, are they too small, too big etc etc If I get some good ideas I will try to get them made too as to be honest its really fun.
Anyway without further ado - here is what Ive made:
Ive made these to fit all defenders and this includes the rear door
Dimensions are : 34mm high x 3mm deep x 5mm at the bottom lip x door length.
Fixing method is double side foam tape & silicon to prevent dirt and water, or they can be drilled for a more solid fixture.
Im hoping to reduce the price on these eventually but lets see if there is any interest, theres no way to negotiate it otherwise.
I would love to hear your thoughts on these, and I hope to get a fitted picture soon to show off.
Heres my ebay links:
2 door set
3 door set
5 door set
Thanks for looking and please let me know if you love them, hate them or just think they are plain useless
