They have exactly the board you are looking for. They carry the proper stuff
for door panels, and a different type for kick panels. Very good stuff, a
little hard to cut, but quite durable. It runs about $8.00 a sheet, which is
roughly 3'by 4' (Actually I think it is larger- I had my sheets cut down a
while back.) 2 sheets can do a typical car.
