Here is a repost of the door liner information:
After tracking various sources for an original appearing door liner material
for Bug Eye Sprites and not having much luck due to the width & depth / ribs
per inch count / thickness. I finally got around to pounding the pavement
and finding a replacement that was a close match to my original sample. I
was digging through an industrial matting mfg..s sample and found a sample
that was closer than any I had seen or had sent to me by various other
sources. The salesman informed me that they no longer manufacture. that
particular material any more but at my insistence he dug through his old
rolls in the warehouse and found a full roll of the material. ( has a mfg..
date of the early 70's) Was able to aquire a strip for samples. He had
previously said he would only sell me the whole roll or nothing, that has
presently changed as he will sell me the needed yardage until the roll is
gone. The material is ribbed vinyl, not rubber so it can be sprayed to match
your interior with no problem. I have sprayed a sample with PPG UCV vinyl
spray and can tell you that the adhesion properties are the same as if it
had originally been dyed that color as I stretched and pulled it with no
separation at all !!!!!. This will be a onetime offer until the roll is
gone. Based upon feedback from numerous sources it is closer than any
material currently found available. Cost will be $43.00 dollars + shipping
per yd / one yd will do two doors with excess for trimming.
TIA
