[QUOTE="twisztdauthorit, post: 4881702, member: 574525"] Thanks for the insight! I used alot more staples on the back side, i just put some on the front to keep everything in place for extra security because the material would rip easily. I tried to get it as tight as i could without ripping it, it started to tear where i put staples:rolleyes: so i guess ill need something better next time, its very stretchy for what it is and works great though! I slightly disagree on fiberglass mold in the door instead of wood though. The reason i used wood because it is very rigid over a flat surface and i needed something sturdy to mount the bolts to. It saved me some time and resin this way and i cant tell much of a difference. If it was a smaller pod i might have. I hope this one turns out just as good if not better than the drivers side [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif[/IMG] I was contemplating ripping off the carpet and doing vinyl or doing the whole bottom door in a way that it would blend better. where the carpet and door panel meet just doesn't look as clean as i want but i want the flexibility to remove it. I actually glassed 1 good layer of fiberglass over it just a few hours ago so hopefully i can do another layer tonight. It seems as if im gonna run out of glass before i finish though. I have plenty of mat so i figure i can use the left over for some other project.. not sure what yet [/QUOTE]
