saw these on ebay. I would paint them close as i could to match interior. The goal being to protect that portion of the door from all the scratches it gets.
looks to attach with 3m tape or similar.

I did order them, just wondering what you guys think.

I would leave them CF, whatever you paint them will be banged up too.

i was thinking light coat of primer then something like black plasti dip. Or i have some Boom mat sound deadener spray laying around for this summers project of coating the interior roof

Remember, Plasti-Dip peels on impact, one of its best-known attributes.

Carbon Fiber, looks trick, and I have a thing for CF.

So, CF over plasti-dip bias.

Maybe I’m just not getting the idea??? Protect from what? Will it not be skinned just like the door??

Too, if they are using a good quality 3M tape for installation, it might damage the finish on the original panel.

the factory door skins get scratches when you look at them and think about a scratch.
I want to protect the factory door skins from getting worse. 6

easily solved with a heat gun and some rubbing alcohol if i ever decided to take them off.

Or pressure washers.
I was trying to clean the crud off one rim, cutting right though the Plasti-Dip so I stripped most of the rest of the same way. I might need to redo them again.

Back O.T.
Good luck with anything on the soft plastic door panels. I'm sure mine are scratched to heck, but not as much of a concern to me.
