Default Upholstering plastic door panels

I’m thinking of putting some type of fabric on my doors. As many of you know, the LC door panels are one piece. I am looking for any ideals on how to put on the fabric and make it look good. I was thinking of putting some vinyl on, with a pattern that looks like the dash.

Maybe even fiberglassing it, what would be the best way?

You can just glue on the fabric of your choice and glue on the seam covering things around the outside to make it look okay. Like the seam coverings that are on some seats, usually vinyl ones. Or you can use flexible El tube for the border which is cool.

If you put down some thin high density foam on the panel first you can cut in patterns like flames or whatever you want too for a cool 3d design look.
