The interior of the doors sometimes looks uneven and bubbly when the door is open and the sun is shining just right on it..I don't think there is anything that will make it look 110%
I have ocd in a minor way. I used to sit in my last car for sometimes hours with Armor All wipes and work it like Joan Collins on a slow day. I had an 01 Boxster and I rubbed the finish off of those door panels..trying to get them perfect. My wife was soooo pissed. I had to replace the Porsche steering wheel because I rubbed the gray leather finish right off of it. It turned brown and then looked like tan suede once all that Armor All dried.
I was hospitalized in '88 because I blew out an elbow ligament from scrubbing. It turned out that I had to have Tommy John surgery to repair my arm. When I was rehabbing, I did almost go crazy because I couldn't clean my cars and my wife was making them so dirty..she and the kids are pigs. I started gluing macaroni on paper plates and on the headboard of our bed. We were separated for about 4 months while I went to treatment for OCD.
Anyhoo...to make a real long story just long, I now have to exercise real discipline so I don't ruin my 350z and its interior(door panels)
