So my brother Chris decided he wanted to reupholster his door panels because he has a 92' civic with the nasty brown interior. He chose to go with black and purple, really close to the Crown Royal purple. We tore off the old fabric and took apart the door panel in to about 4 pieces. There are these little plastic pop rivet type things that hold on the center piece. We found it easiest to use a razor blade and cut off the top part of it to release the center plastic, and then just use a screw and washer to re attach it. Worked perfect. Here are some pics. They turned out really nice IMO.
The fabric looks blue in almost all the pics, but it's actually a royal purple.
Speaker cover Purple.
Used 3M Super 77 to adhere the fabric to the pieces.
The door side pocket thing.
After the ugly brown is covered.
Ugly brown door panel.
Half way covered with the black. Getting some more 3M on there.
Put back together.
Outside the Purple turns Blue in the camera for some reason. This is the back door he did yesterday, but was unsure how much glue to use because he didn't want the fabric to harden or get real stiff. Apparently not enough glue, going to have to re-do it.
And here is the one we finished today. Still need all black plastics. Door handle, lock, etc...
Ha...just noticed we forgot the little corner plastic piece.
He wants to tackle the seat fabric, but not sure how well we would be able to do that. Worth a try. All input is welcome. Lmk what you guys think.
Yes...typo on title...damn.
