I replaced my battered and dented door

When I first converted my van I got a door off a newer Dispatch and it had that black plastic bumper car strip on it. Looked super pout of place when none of the other panels had it. So after a while I pulled it off, but it had the plastic attachments which looked similarly out of place.

But it was also dented, which allowed me to knock a bit off the price, but it doesn't look fantastic. Anyway, when I noticed the rear latch of it was breaking I sought out and got a new one, and it was plastic- and dent-free!

I've been meaning to fit it for months, and finally got a bit of time to do it.

Insulation after fitting the lock/handle/mechanism, and before adding my plywood cover and curtains:

Dent-free and it actually shuts flush with the front door!
