Quality Lower Door Panels Needed!!!!!!

[71airgrabberRR]

As a result of another thread with this exact question raised, I am asking all of you the following question:

If a Metro quality replacement set of lower door and kick panels were produced for 71-74 two door B Bodies, would you buy a set as long as the prices were in line for the same product that is available for our E Body brothers and sisters???

This is a grassroots poll to submit to the manufacturers. They say there is power in numbers. Lets see!!!!

Sign me up for a set!

I actually thought that the 73 and 74 BBody kick panels were the same as the 73 and 74 EBody ones? Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Additionally, if you are in need, I do have a set of white (dirty) kick panels from a Satellite

Thanks anyhow for your kind offer. I have a set on my 72 SSB parts car but they are not black.
I didn't want to spray them black only to have the original lighter color show through if they were scuffed.
We were trying to see just how many people would purchase a new set if they were made available.
Then we could present the numbers to the manufacturers to see if this need would persuade them to start making them.
Thanks again.

This is the E Body set. You can see they are pretty close.

I just spend around $1200 ( plus international shipping )in a full plastic interior set. AND I GOT REALLY DISSAPOINTED!! but I had too. My plastic pieces were getting bad day after day quickly.

Being Palco doesn't produce A pillars, or correct rear 74 lowers, I got a mix of Palco and Accuform interior parts. NO ONE WORTHS A ****!

Goods from Palco:
Grain pattern is at least close.

Bads from Palco:
Grain is Blurry in lot of areas.
I got white panels and they are Molded in White, but since White shade on molded panel is incorrect they still have TO PAINT THEM. and I HATE INTERIOR PLASTIC PARTS PAINTED... this also adds more blurry on the areas already blurry.
Backseat panels doesn't have the seats for screws on hinges areas, so I had to go to a grocery store to get screws... Imposible to use originals. Holes doesn't even match with hinges scres locations.

Goods from Accuform:
plastic is molded in correct shade.

Bads from Accuform:
The rest, you name it!

Long te ago I wrotte to Metro through ebay, and told me they will study if posible. Sure I will buy again all the interior pieces. Sure will take a while untill get the money ( $1200 is A LOT FOR ME, you can't imagine, plus shipping ), maybe couple of years to be able to.

I hear you my friend, I was disappointed when the accuform ones showed up, I have complete set of lowers, kickers, a-pillars, and seat backs, and they have issues. This is the one driving factor why it would be nice if Metro would do these properly, and with the correct type of plastic. Accurform ones are hard plastic, not flexible at all which is incorrect. As you pointed out the grain is blurry, there are incorrect holes in them, wrong shade of white, the arm resets are made from a block of wood covered in vinyl, this is not right either.
