DIY door panel

dartfreak where did you find vinyl with the lines in it .. guess if you have marine grade for backer you could find a walnut veneer for the upper part..
I usually can find that type of trim vinyl (really light weight thin stuff and does not wear really well) in specialty trim or upholstery shops. In order to get the correct horizontal and vertical seams you really need a sonic welder/seam roller . we have ours made from heavier vinyl and sent to a place in california and have a roll of 40 yards done at a time. You could try a vacuforming company since they usually have a sonic welder and might do it cheaper for small quantities.
