I would like to cover the map pockets on my doors so it looks like they were never there but i dont want to fiberglass the whole door does anyone have suggestions or has anyone done this?



It wouldnt be any fun if it was easy.

There's no need to fiberglass the entire door but just the map pocket's. But you will have to sand the texture off the plastic to match were the glassed part's are.

Ok well this will be my first fiberglassing job so is there like a walk through or something on how to fiberglass. Also would i need some kind of support behind the pockets to cover it?

Spray foam or wood. Spray foam is easiest, just spray into the hole then shave off the excess to match the panel. Then glass.

ok thanks is there any special prep that the plastic needs in order for the fiberglass to stick?
