Nice job on the door panels. I did basically the same thing on my 1952 3100. I did bend the aluminum to conform to the curve present in both my doors and door panel frames. It seems to be a much more pronounced crease in my truck then your 1953. I thought they were the same. I used the same covering as the seat and did take the vinyl over the edge. Tight fit in the frame but it worked. I have tried to attach a picture but not sure it will work.
