Looking for the wood grain or red door panel inserts for the passenger side of my gran coupe to paint yellow. Anyone have these?

they are not easy to come by, and when you do they can be $$$.  they would not be hard to re-pop, but no one i know of is doing that.

Thanks tuff, I really only need two pieces though. Passenger door and passenger rear upper piece. I'm trying to avoid buying a full set. $275 is more than I was hoping to spend for two pieces, otherwise I'd just buy the set from you.  If you are willing to trade some stuff, I can do that. 3piece gran coupe/cuda tail trim, gran coupe rockers. Etc

I see. I will watch this spring at shows & swaps for you but don't hold your breath for me. These are very hard to find period but the rears are easier to find than the doors. However, I do have one separate upper piece thats damaged & it may work for you since you are painting it. Let me know if you might want this one, it is cracked  :swear:

Yeah, if you have that cracked piece, perhaps I can save it.

Worse case, I could try to find some at mopar nationals in August if it doesn't work out.

I wonder how hard it would be to re-pop them? It is very similar to exterior door-ding moldings, just with a brown wood-like-imitation finish with a metallic highlight bar above & below. Just cut to length, bend to fit, and glue on the metal tabs, then you are good to install.

Looks like a two piece stamped design. Shouldn't be hard to reproduce.

yellow fin, Im going to PM you on this.

However, if this is repoped, remember you have to deal with making soem corners for the trim inside the door panels on the curves. I'm sure something can be repoped, just hope who does uses some original as the base.
