Have been talking with our rep at PUI and they are going to look into making these. They already have a test car as well.

Keep your fingers crossed. I've been on them for almost a year now on this.

might be best to just make the shell,as different models had different trim levels.Also keep in mind that they made 2 different "dark colors(charcoal or graphite)

point is there are 2 different dark colors so which one to make?
3 yrs vs 7
but this may not be so hard
not many pre 97s cracked

Thumbs up

I need a pair of the Taupe door panels for my '02 TA. These are getting very difficult to find uncracked or undamaged these days. I really hope these can be reproduced and hopefully improved over the GM design (cracking wise).

Will the reproductions have the same type of "leather" inserts as the originals?

the right door panel cracked on my 2001 Trans Am in 2005 while sitting in a
climate controlled garage with 1600 miles on the car. I bought a new 900 dollar door panel from GM and sold the car immediately I was so pissed. smartest thing I ever did.
