Kick panel carpet (pics) - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I was ambivalent about these, especially because they're not original, but my wife convinced me to go ahead with them. So don't bad mouth them :-)

Anyway, I got these from LMC I think. They match the carpet perfectly, even though in the photo the light makes it look like they may not. They require a fair bit of trimming. They do not line up properly with the vents (how hard could that have been to mess up). Other than that, they're perfect.

Just throwing a photo out there in someone is curious as to how they look. Wife said it made the truck seem cozier. I never thought of these trucks as cozy.

Ignore the hideous ABS plastic door panels. They're just placeholders until I can find decent skins for my originals.

I like the kick panel carpet in our trucks and yours looks great and finishes off the floor. I bought a set of the kick panel carpets for my truck as well as carpet for the bottom of the doors from LMC Truck. I have a rubber floor in my truck now and when I install carpet the kick panel and lower door carpets are going in as well.

I've always liked kick panel carpet and may put it in mine. As always truck is looking great, hope you plan on touring it to local shows

I have the kick panel carpet and the door panel carpet. Very pleased with them as they finish off the interior nicely.

I like it, by the way, what color blue is your truck ? Could you post some more pics ?

**derotoreut** · 06-24-2014, 09:56 PM

I like how it looks. What do they give you to secure it and how well does it stay in place? I'd like to see some pictures of the door panel carpet too (that Leddzepp has).

Nothing wrong with that carpet. Gives a nice, clean and finished look to your truck We do need to see some more pictures though. Those door panels look good, but you have to like what is there.
Are those buddy buckets? If so, those door panels might be part of a nice package from chevy. As we all like pictures, please include more!
