ive seen it done with different results - some were very good and you could not see they were ever doors there

and some looked a complete mess

van needs to be strong in the corners first
do you want the doors to be seen as doors filled in or totally flat on the back
think about what you want before you do anything
has it been done before? well my mk1 escort van was done like this 30 years+ ago :lol:

good luck boyo

if you do it matt it looks best with a single window

and totally smoothed over

you could prolly get a lift up door with rotton btm edge for next to nowt and just use the window part :idea:
