where to buy repair panels for price and quality (GMCPauls?)

I've been copmaring prices and it appears GMCPauls cost is about equal to LMC Truck (lower in some items). Can anyone vouch for the panels they've gottem from either company, as being good reproductions that fit. Since I'm dealing with sections of the truck that are no longer there, I will be matching up the pieces of the truck to the panel, so these things are important :-)

I noticed GMCPauls has a 'inner rocker panel' and a 'inner rocker backing plate'. what is the difference?
thanks-Paul

I've had good experiences with patch panels from both LMC and GMC Paul. Haven't tried Tim yet, but I'm sure I will.

I haven't bought panels from Paul (yet) but have bought lots of other stuff. Based on his quality, prices, service, and willingness to help -- I wouldn't hesitate to order anything he carries. Can't go wrong.

The inner rocker panel is just the inner rocker panel ( vertical piece) and the inner rocker panel backing plate includes the inner rocker panel and also extends for an inch or 2 up to the edge of the cab floor where it begins to run horizontal ( THIS IS IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY... not 100% sure.
