I used dupli color fabric and vinyl paint for the panel. Got it at oriellys. Make sure you get flat and not gloss. The insert i used suede, the glue i used for the insert is called elmers. Its in a spray can. And it's a pain in the ass putting the insert back in. Probably would have been easier with an extra set of hands.

I had to break the plastic weld off to get the insert out because ita not ment to take out and I used a Dremel on the back of the panel to grind it smooth. The hard part is lining it back up and not getting glue on the insert. I used a hot glue gun and contact cemete. And then I used gorilla duct tape for extra strength.

Nice looking panel. Where did you pick up the suede?

eBay. $18 for 2 yards. And I think about $6 for one yard plus shipping

I also wrapped my interior trim in a grey fabric. I got that from hobby lobby. Jo Ann's has a bunch to choose from too.

That dupli color paint is fantastic. I used that for my seats. You did a great job wrapping those inserts, I used screws to hold my panels, no glue or anything, I just cut them and screwed them into the studs.

Just cut them the same size as the stud. And use a washer to keep it from going trough the insert.
