No they are not based on OEM panels at all... they are custom

They are custom door panels from C.A.R.S. INC I don't think they sell them anymore. They cover the whole door

I emailed them to see when they discontinued them and if anyone else picked up the design.

Didn't want to vote that they are gay, but I did have to vote that I like the stock ones better. Provided they look stock, and are not too wore out.

I fly with the motto "less is more".  I don't think you need GMC emblems all over the place...you have one on the grill and tailgate, that should be enough.  If you are sticking with the woodgrain theme, then you need some woodgrain on the door panel, and I like Chris' idea...in the recess.  I also like door panels only, not full upholstered door shells...I would only cover the panel itself (stock panels), and paint the bottom of the door body color (if it isn't already.  Spruce up the cranks and handles, and you have a winner.

lol this post is old news guys. The door panels are recovered and there are no emblems on them. I have no GMC emblem on the grille or tailgate either. The white gauges are history and replaced with digital. I have all new interior pieces for when I'm done with the body. I'm a bit further along then you see in the pix here http://forum.73-87chevytrucks.com/smforum/index.php?topic=7175.105

Somebody must have bumped it up. I blame him.



Oh wait, it appears that was me. Hmm. Well then I wonder how it got to the top of the posts in the interior section? That's how I found it. And I assumed it current and didn't check the date. But I guess it's a good thing that you didn't keep em. You got two more votes for "They're gay", in the short time after I accidentally bumped this. lol.
