Has anybody been able to dye, paint, colour the shabby grey internal door cards. Mine look awful!! Seen a 'magic' sponge advertised somewhere that colours plastic trim, but I'm assuming that would just be to rejuvenate black plastic.
Thanks

Re: Door cards
Yes lots of people re-cover them.
I've seen amazing styles. Fabric, superhero comic pages (with a sealer on top) the wipe-off vinyl that's used as tablecloths etc.
Getting the panel off is the most challenging part. They're held on by clips.
You can buy a trim removal tool (ebay, amazon, sealey etc). Or use a flatblade screwdriver.

Great, will look into it... Hate them at the moment!

I've recovered the side and boot trim, it's the passenger and driver door panels that are awful.Allans wrote: ↑Mon Jul 19, 2021 7:21 am Yes lots of people re-cover them.
