Are reproduction door panels any good? If so where can I get a good set for a late 80s model with all the trim but manual windows and locks?

I know LMC and JCWhitney has them, others too I'm sure.

I just bought some fenders and a hood and they are thin as a coke can. Just know that they won't be good as the original and will dent with a feather. My advise would be to find one from a guy parting out a chevy on Craigslist.
I'm looking for the interior panels not the actual sheet metal. Any personal reviews of the reproduction panels would be great.
Probably want black or red?

Shooting for maroon. I'm just tired constantly respraying vinyl dye on them as they wear. And every time I buy a can its a slightly different shade. I also want to upgrade my trim from a basic custom deluxe model.
I see. I have a decent set of gray Silverado ones I just pulled off a 1988 K5.

I have a set of Maroon ones from a fairly low mile truck. If your still looking I can send you some pics.
Are they manual windows and locks?

Yes manual windows and locks with the deluxe interior. I'll snap some pictures this weekend and shoot them over to you. Its been inside the past 8 years so the interior is pretty nice.
Ya take some pictures!

This is the trim on the driver lower panel, it looks like it has popped loose. I don't see anything else concerning. Of course they need a super good clean, they have been in storage for a long time.
Thanks for the pics but those are for a 73-75 or so. They might still bolt on but I'm not sure. Besides I'm not a big fan of the fake wood.
Do not buy LMC, I had two sets in my C10 and everytime temperatures get below 50 degrees they crack...
I would just recommend looking on ebay for some good used ones or some nos but they will be pricey if you find some.
