well, looks like this place has some active post editors, well i posted a paragraph and the pics, but since the pics didn't turn out i think the first post was wiped out heres what i said (paraphrased): This work is a result of me attempting to use my engineering skills. After I found out how expensive it is to have fiberglass work done professionally, I decided to use the little fiberglass experience (just little stuff from when i was a kid) i had and start from scratch. So after researching and congering ideas in my head. After 2 attempts and about 4-5 months of serious work, heres what i came up with. I did this my self in my basement with only hand and small dremal sized hand tools. When i mentioned research, this site helped me out so much at the beginning. So now I am done, i want to return the favior and pass my steps and short cuts on to whom ever want to know. And with that being said, i can answer questions about how i put every thing together. Any questions about the paint, I can ask Nick, the nice guy at redline motorsports to feild those quesitons, I'm pretty sure he is a member of this forum. This is my own work everything that is, except i had the peices professionally painted., and yes this is my car, if you live in upstate new york, you may see it sometime out and about. It's a 02 celica gts, many mods -justin

ok, to anyone that wants to know, go here for the first step https://www.the12volt.com/installbay/forum_posts.asp?tid=21319 step 2 add fiberglass mat, and grind down high spots with dremal cutter wheel and mouse sander with 60grit and 80 grit paper 
step 3 add body filler 
step 4: sand, oh and sand again, and a few more times. 
last minute i decided to mold in the arm rest, and the speaker grills using kitty hair fiberglass and body filler if i forgot anything, let me know, justin ------------- ummm.. smells like styrene

I bought mine from a fellow member on my website who totalled his car. I originally bought them so that I could have the door panels with the power switches and no window crank hole(I know have aftermarket door locks and power windows), but never was able to figure out how to hook up the switches and stuff so they're not in the car right now. -------------
