Finally got the door builds finished and they looked soooooooooo good, but then went to fit them to car, and yeh they fit pretty good but FUCK the door wont close

Im sooooooo totally gutted as wont be ready for donny and my car is still in pieces and may still be at Donny




Where they hit the dash


Totally my fault as ive havent really checked that they fit so only got myself to blame and such a stupid mistake

And how the car currently looks, leaving for Donny in less than 24 hours

Thought about it and would work on passenger side but on drivers side its just by the fuse box, will have to trim builds and re paint

Chris: Now got to get standard door cardas back on get down bodyshop first thing to rub down primer on the middle dash secion and then get the guy to paint it(will probablt fit up there) cleaning will have to be done up there aswell, and to make it worse the cut off for inside is 10pm friday night and that is with it washed and DRY and i aint leaving my house till 5PM good 3 hours there
