Default Interior Lower Door Panels
What are the options to dress this area of the interior up? Are there "kits" available? Anything in chrome or with chrome accents? Who's got some pictures?

Here is a lower door panel done by Willfulone. Its not chrome, but it looks pretty cool and its easy to clean.

You might be able to dye the area to a different color too. I've not done it but I believe there were some posts in the past about doing this.

Thanks for the pics guys. They look great! Now for the obvious question - how do you go about getting them dyed? Is it hard/time consuming?

P.S. Dangerous, I love your "Corvette" door sills. Where did you get those?
