I never really said the previous owner was evil. In fact he was a friend of mine, but he didn't take good care of his car. That unfortunately is true of most people.

Hello you all! Message here from overseas: we are working on a sturdy but simple and inexpensive repairkit called PANELPADS to solve this problem WITHOUT having to remove the panels of your car. We found the working principle already, still working on the finishing touch, and we will ship overseas. You can get more information on:

http://www.wolvengang.com/#!commitment-english/oj5uu

Or follow this project on Twitter #panelpads.

By the way, this is no commercial, we are just a bunch of enthusiasts driving 3 Classics in our innovation business network. For that reason we thought we had to be the ones to take the lead in this nasty issue.

ATTENTION! Do NOT try to glue the vinyl back on the panel in whatever way unless you are an absolute upholstery professional! It will do more harm than it will help. Replacement with 'R' panels is an option of course, if you can find them.
