^ Nice!

I threw on 3mm spacers up front on top of my 20's. That much closer to flush.

Before


After


I wish it was flush, but whatever. I have bigger problems to worry about, like my car being a piece of ****.

How would you take your door cards out? That's the last piece I need to complete the entire interior re-wrap. Already did headliner, sunroof slider, rear deck, center console lid, a-pillars, and c/d-pillars. Hmmmm maybe the b-pillars could use some fabric too

Broke something. Sounds like my tires flopping every rotation or hitting something. Officially raising it tomorrow for an alignment.

one screw at the top left and right corners of door card (hidden when door closed) one screw in door handle, then the plastic ring slides down and out to reveal two more screws, then lift up on the door card after removing thoose screws. and all the pillars i believe just snap in

The bit in the middle that you would be re-wrapping doesn't come off. It looks like it's held in by a bunch of plastic tabs that were then melted/welded to keep you from taking it out. You'd have to break all of them to get it out, then come up with some creative way to keep it in there later.

Dremel and grinding bit are how I'm doing it. I'll hold them back in with epoxy on the tabs.

Whoops meant the door inserts I've actually had the door cards out 10+ times.

CCA4/ImTheDevil, it may be worthwhile for me to do this. There's not much worse than loose fabric (and yes I mean fabric, I don't have leather/leather substitute)
