wondering if its worth gettin the fiberglass doors. also wondering if anyone knows a good place to pick up a set of fiber glass doors for a eg coupe/hatch im located in NJ

 

Unless your looking for the most weight loss and are willing to have the fiberglass reworked so they acturally fit and close flush, keep the gutted OEM's.

 

Gutted oems seem cheaper.
Plus they may be a little bit safer.

 

If you can find fiberglass doors with pre-installed lexan, buy them.

Otherwise just gut the stock doors, buy the TFAL lexan kit or go to home depot and buy 2 big sheets of lexan and make the windows yourself

 

Be sure it's Lexan not plexi-glass. Plexi-glass is dangerous, it doesn't like to stay on the car.

 

Yea , it says LEXAN on it . . . lol

 

There is also 1 side scratch resistant and 2 side scratch resistant. Make sure you get the 2 side. I can't stand looking at someone's car and seeing scratched up lexan that is tacky.

 

 

ok i was goin to spend the 600 on the fiber glass doors. but its with the lexan. its 1200 for scratch proff lexan installed on the fb doors... i have doors that are stock if i do the metal door thing imma need find a set of doors which isnt hard. but when im installin the lexan on the stock doors am i screwing it on?

 

They want $600 for the lexan on those doors? That is retarded...it is about $80 worth of lexan on there. You can buy a 4x8 sheet of the good stuff from a place like Meyer Plastics for about $220. Let me look to see if I still have my template from my EG doors. My MB fiberglass doors mounted up real easy and fit perfect.

All that old MB stuff always lined right up for me including the tailgate and front end, and every front I've had since is all deformed and needs work to fit. Are they still around?

 

you can screw or rivet. screw is easier if you are going to be replacing it (if you dont get scratch proof). i like the look of a rivet over screw but both will work

 

MB racing in NJ they are still around, still on here too.

 

Don't get the stuff from Home Depot.

If you look in the RR/AX forum there have been some good threads in there on lexan and different fasteners (maybe in here too, but I've never looked).

 

mb in bakersfield is still around but doesnt do much fiberglass anymore but they do from time to time!

 

im on east coast so it would nice to have a sumone out here doin it.. im tryn to contact frank fiber glass in PA but i havent had luck with them yet. i kno midnight auto jus got em in NY but they prolly gunna be charge a whole lot.

im definately gunna get high quality or scratch-proof lexan if theres any where i can order it lemme kno.

 

i been searching for MB doors for a long time every time i found em it was too late.

 

Percys makes the lexan for honda's and it's great. I have it in my hatch and doors from frank. VERY pleased with it, I wish I could have them on all corners lol

 

is it true that frank is closing up shop? i been tryn to contact him but no luck
