Default Any StreetBeast/CMC builders out there know what these are for?


The title says it, what are these.....two of them about 18" wide and 48" long, cut out of a hard (melonite?) I have looked thru the manual forward, backwards, and sideways and kind find no mention of them

I've got a cmc kit and I can't find anything like that in my pile of parts. The only panel I got has to be cut down the middle and has curved cuts on each side and they then cover the opening under the doors. Really unusual for cmc or Street beasts to give you anything extra. I had to sue just to get most of what I paid for. Don

Yeah, I got those too, but these I can't find reference to anywhere. I thought they might be for the door upholstery to attach to but they are wayyyyyyyyyyyy to big for that.......

Could they be trunk interior side panels ready to be cut to shape... big end up front, little end in back?

Earl: I do believe they were for your door panels, but my interior guy said they were "worthless" (go figure). . I would just use them to catch oil on the shop floor, then discard.

Are you any closer to finishing your Cobra than you were?

I'm getting closer, but it still seems the damn thing is fighting me every step of the way......I went to hang doors last weekend and the drivers door doesn't seem to fit, but the passenger door seemed to almost fitI'm currently working on a couple of wiring quirks, easy fixes, just have to be done I've also got to put in a larger hood scoop. And to answer your statement about the panels, I thought they might be for the door panels but since they were so large I wasn't sure. I'm probably going to use one to close in the area behind the seats.
