Umm, I Think You're insane, no offense =) That is very impressive detailing. I never opened any doors on a kit so I've never thought about the rubber seals on the door sills. I've put this thread to my favorite links so that I can keep up easily. You have serious modelling skills!

Thank you very much.
Unfortunatelly, when it comes to final assembling of all the modified parts, it goes harder and longer then you planed. Some parts reject to fit their places, even though you test fit them before without problem. So now I have to knock down the doors and adjust door trims and window frames again.

This thread just keeps getting better! I enjoy watching you progress. Keep going man. If I could offer one thought: Don't worry about being perfect.
