Nato, My zip code is 95032 (My city is Los Gatos) with the next major metropolitan area being San Jose The shipping box measures 45x25x5 with the weight being 8 pounds In addition, I have 4 sets of factory panels ready to go and 1 set of the "speaker" panels boxed and ready to ship as well Pete

Fly and all, I started laying up a new batch of panels today, lol lol No, typically the door cards are shipped as a blank, no holes are cut in the panels at all. Your factory door upper mounts to the new panel in the same way the fiberboard panel mounted. I think you'll find some aluminum rivets to be more than enough to complete this task. Place the panel in the car and use a drop light or flash light on the inside of the door, this will allow light to shine through the panels which indicates where you need to drill holes for the new "Christmas tree fasteners" The old fiberboard panel can be placed on top of the new panel as a guide for the door handle release but only with the factory panels. Typically I cut the speaker holes in the "Speaker panels" although if the end user wants this left uncut that can be done as well. I also use tape to indicate where the door handle release needs cutting as you can not use the factory door panel as a template.

Hello everyone, My name is Pete and Im the guy that produces the fiberglass and carbon fiber door cards for the 240/260/280 Z's. I understand that there is some interest in getting parts ordered. So basically I offer to different types of panels, one is the factory panels that is a direct replacement. The second is a panel that has a 6.5 speaker provision located in the lower door, with this conversion an aftermarket power window regulator is required. I've used the "SPAL" Kit with great success as its easily installed and proven to be quiet reliable. As far as cost goes, either set will cost you $250 in fiberglass, carbon fiber goes up from there and depending upon how many layers you want your looking at an additional 85 per layer, I wouldn't recommend any less than three layers. Shipping is a huge variable as I have no idea what ti cost to shit to Australia, although to save on duties, tariff, import tax, or whatever its called there I would be willing save the end user money and alter my invoice to show minimal cost. Ill post pictures in the near future to show my work and give you all a better idea of what the end product looks like. If you have any questions please chime in Pete
