If you are getting TN wings carpet, you really don't need the plastic kick panels at all. I have TN Wings carpet and the carpet for the kick panel area is stiff enough to not need the plastic kick panels.

Hey Michael I believe my private message went through but in case not, I just had an idea - if you're able to ONLY ship both kick panels from your old carpet, I could purchase some new carpet to fit over those and save the cost of the panels (which is what's eating me alive) - even if I have to remove the old carpet myself.
Thanks so much!
Deziree
You can text the photos of the carpet! Send me a PM if you didn't get mine earlier.

I'm hoping they'll reimburse me for at least some of the carpet and or seat they lost. I would be done with this restoration project now if they hadn't lost the two items. They're not even helping to replace what was lost, I'm obviously doing all the work to get it done.
And being hit with the side/kick panel cost is way more than I was expecting.

I've been speaking with Shelby and he's very kindly taken the time to walk me through some ideas. I'm just hit with the ridiculous price of new kick panels (the scrap yards don't have any), so trying to figure out a way to purchase and install carpet only, without those panels.
@Michael Scheib - would you mind sending a few photos of the carpet you have? I might be interested!
Other idea was to just leave the carpet out altogether, I see some people doing that. But with the new avionics and interior panels, I was thinking that would likely lower the sale price (need to sell asap!) since it makes it look all tied together.
I'll take any ideas!
Thanks all
