[QUOTE="AWD PSI, post: 6993003, member: 625722"] Adding the plexi to cover the holes in the door. [ATTACH=CONFIG]26520391[/ATTACH] The brown charring is from using a lighter to fine tune corners. [ATTACH=CONFIG]26520392[/ATTACH] Used a silicone sealant to run a bead oruond the cut out. [ATTACH=CONFIG]26520393[/ATTACH] Gorilla Glue tape is holding the pieces in place [ATTACH=CONFIG]26520394[/ATTACH] There is probably some room for touch ups on the plexi cut outs but my plan is to Dynamat over them so I just took care that they wont interfere with the door clips. I used a Dremel tool with router bit to cut out the basic shapes and a belt sander to fine tune. I baked the plexi in the oven @275 for 6min. It becomes rubbery and cools quickly.
