The previous owner cut the door panels to put in some speakers and they just looked out of place. So I decided to make some sort of cool thingamabob to improve the looks.
This is what I came up with....This is the before pic of the door. See the fancy speaker stands out a little.
We had some extra Aluminum Diamonplate layin around so I figured "why not?" This is a pic of a rough layout of where I want it to go. (I cut these panels out with shears so my hands are killing me
) I lined the panel up just under the crease in the door.
After it was the right shape I layed out and cut the hole needed for the speakers.
Because the door was already cut I didnt feel bad about drilling holes to use rivets. Otherwise I might have used double sided tape like on the cool door sill pieces I made previously. (My new seat belt retractor made it in this photo, thanks Ryan)
After I trimmed the hole to fit the speaker I decied where to put the rivets that hold the panel on. I drilled the holes, lined 'em up and put a rivet gun to the door.
I have a pic of the rivets up close but we all know what they look like
So I rivited the panel on and screwed the speaker back in and bam, all done.
I think that it turned out pretty good, not that I'm pattin myself on the back or anything
. I still have to do the passenger side tomorrow. It would have been tone today but it is just too hot outside 
.DaNe!!!
just kidding
