Replacing door skins

[Madgyver]

I know a few have done this using the new skins available. I tried to search site but couldn't find any pics.

Anyone done this got pics to post and info to share?

I have done it. Tools needed, air chisel, grinder, welder, hammer and dolly. Some use a door skin tool for removal. Cuts spot welds and peels edge off.
I precut the old skin off. Air chisel the edges off. Hammer and dolly flat. Center old skin. Hammer and dolly edges up and around edge. Tac weld edge

I will be skinning both doors when i get my tax return. I will take pics of the process if you dont have your door skinned yet

if you have hand grinder grind edges it will split, then if you have small abrs cut off wheel grind spot welds inside jam peal back, + a box of bandaids. just my 2 cents. as putting new skin on 3m makes a 2 pt adhisive to attach skin to frame works great. you still have to dolly edges. does make a rust proof seal around edges.

I may end up doing this to one of my doors when the time comes.
