Hi all, has anyone ever recoverd there front door-cards? mine are looking a bit scruffy now and i was wondering if it is possible to recover them in the faux leather. My main concern is if the faux leather will stretch sufficiently enough so as not to leave creases or would plastic paint be better.

Ah, not the top bit. If it were me, I'd look around for a decent pair of used door cards. If you've got a bigger budget you could consider a leather cover:

I covered mine in stretchy van lining "carpet" and change the material for faux leather.
