   retrimmed looks good, i recon just taking the fabric off and leaving it will look terrible

    Yes. I have full plastic door cards. Not very aesthetically pleasing tbh, nor comfy on the arm.

    it really doesn;t tried it twice now none is strong enough to hold leather down, in the sun and heat bubbles off the cards and won;t restick. did the fronts like this first time lasted a day. also tried rears and they all fell off in massive bubbles. so def def def don;t work. material is too heavy

    well everyone i have done with spray glue bubbles off. so as usual we'll agree to disagree we'll leave it there
