Door panel question

So I bought the metal door panel replacements from Brothers and after further research it seems another panel goes over that. Is that right? And has anyone ever just used these as a finished look? It's what I am thinking of doing. There are a few obstacles but I think it would work

If we're talking about the same panel, that's wha I did, no obstacles. No other panel was used only wrapped in vinyl.

Re: Door panel question

This is the before and after initial installation. Ill have to tap out the mounting holes as they have been drilled out also those aren't the right door handles they are back ordered

Yup, that's what I used. And your're talking about tapping the door mounting holes? If memory serves you use clips on the door to screw to from the front of panel.

Re: Door panel question

Your before pic looks like a door panel for a 72. Your after (metal) panel uses a different armrest. my 2 cents.

Armrest are back ordered and previous owner drilled out holes for plastic clips for 72 door panel
