Why Choose Carbon Fiber Reinforced Kick Panels?

Traditional plastic kick panels can become brittle, crack, or warp over time. These premium panels use carbon fiber reinforced plastic to provide added rigidity and durability.

Stronger Construction

Carbon fiber reinforcement helps strengthen the plastic material, making these panels a durable choice for classic truck interiors.

Integrated Speaker Openings

Both panels feature molded 4-inch speaker openings, providing a convenient location for adding front speakers to your truck's audio system.

Factory Emergency Brake Clearance

The driver-side panel is shaped to accommodate the original emergency brake pedal, helping avoid interference in this commonly crowded area of the cab.

Customizable Finish

The black finish works well in many interiors, but the panels can also be painted or upholstered to coordinate with your custom interior design.
