Awright guys? The guy that built my clubby-and me for not noticing,ive got holes in the top of my door where the mirror base sits. There's too many etc. Spoke to the guy from minidoor company and he recommended a re-skin.

Any suggestions please.??
Thanks for your help.

How tidy do you want it too look? If your not bothered whack a couple or rubber grommet/bung things in there, cheap and easy.

If the doors are in good nick can you not just pull the paint back, weld the holes/provide your own holes as needed then fill/paint over them. I used rivnuts to give a threaded point to fix to when I put mine together.

If we are just talking about the two holes for the Mirrors, I'd do as Oli suggests and weld them up. That is if there is nothing wrong with the rest of the doors

Of course a company that makes their buisness out of reskinning doors would only recomend reskinning, in the hope you'll get them to do the work.

weld them up thats a nice easy job just dont plug in one big go as the heat will warp the skin, reskin is way over the top for that

I'd weld them up if the rest of the skin is good. Place a strip of brass behind the hole before welding and will give a nice smooth finish behind and help keep distortion to a minimum.
