Re: kick panels, help needed.
I couldn't find any that i liked so i found a few threads on how others have built them. I kept the vent hole, but you could easily cover it up if you wanted. I used some fiberglass mat, resin and a old t -shirt and sprayed bed liner on them when i was done. It was a messy job but quite simple.

Re: kick panels, help needed.
Did you have to move the parking brake or high beam?

Re: kick panels, help needed.
I didn't move the parking brake, but i did relocate the dimmer switch. I just took a piece of 1/8" steel and built a bracket to extend the dimmer about 2 1/2". You can see it in the last picture. Here is a better shot of it.

Re: kick panels, help needed.
Lmc truck makes them. Look pretty good. Check their site. I believe brothers trucks also has them in their catalog. Both are free. Used to be some in jc Whitney catalog as well. Check all three and maybe 1 will work for you.
