the rear/trailing edge of the door is different too.
one curves one way, the other the opposite.

look at the 2dr sedan above - it curves rearward.
a 4-dr front door curves forward to make clearance for the rear door.

thanks 510-trevor, appreciated :)
rnorrish - it's for a 2-door sedan, using the 4-door door is the risk i have to take since i don't have any other choices :(

thanks guys, i will try to update the pics once it's completed. :) :) :)

i just pointed it out so while you are making your doors, this is something you'll need to consider fixing.
good luck, and have fun!

I can ship you a set of 2 door doors but the shipping would be expensive. They are pretty heavy.
Enjoy The Ride!
