    Default Door seal restoration

    As seen my door seals were completely ruined, deteriorated, and any speed above 90km gave off wind noise.
    New oem seals were going to cost too much, so for $70 of rubber and "3M Weatherstrip adhesive" and a very sharp scalpel, ive done it myself.

    The last 2 pictures are the new seal that i glued on.
    I cut the old seal off and sandpapered both rubber surfaces with a course grit paper, then applied the glue, it works exactly like a contact adhesive, but much faster.
