i think we have changed about 3 or 4 cars BACK to original panels or other materials.

the ckecker rattles, is cold, uncomfortable and really does not look good.

yer, checker plate is soo 2004. It just makes the car look like someone covered it in Supercheap plastic rolls.

I think plain aluminum looks the best. I'm not a big fan of checker plate because of the chrome and the pattern which is really only designed for grip.

but if you like the look of it just take your standard door trim off and use that as a template then but some cut with a grinder and use a file to round the edges.
