Pics and on what car?

I had this thought too but with a vacuum former where a plastic negative mold is made. Bagging would add wrinkles, not eliminate them. There's also determining how much stretch is required from the material to get it to work.
Is it possible to buy a single yard of the rain fabric with no foam backing?

Beginning the process. Thanks Brett, Louiee and Nicholas for the advice and ideas how to do it so far. Its going to be a bit of a process, but I think my OCD will prevail over my lack of experience and knowledge.

Does anyone know how to remove the insert from the doorcard? Just pop out the rivets? They seem permanently attached.

I had the cards out of the car. It's the leather insert I'm not sure how to remove. It has permanent plastic rivets into it. As MM said it appears it can not be reattached the same way as original. I might've screwed. Looking at picking up some spare door cards maybe to experiment. The whole plan may have gone to shit though from the looks of things.
There are many junk yards you can get the cards at in your area. I know there is a german specific yard in Gresham.

FYI, on my 95 there were no rivets holding the door card insert to the door card, just glue.

Bump! Still have some in stock! Get it while you can...
FWIW, the coupon code doesn't seem to work 100% of the time. If it doesn't work for you, I will simply give a 10% partial refund through Paypal for any purchases this month if the coupon was not applied.
