I am looking at the White Wolf ABS kick panels. Has anyone used them, or any other interior kick panel?

I see a number that say "cardboard", but I think I want the ABS material, unless someone can tell why not.

Any help is appreciated.
I would just make your own. You can get various sized ABS sheets on Amazon. I purchase 4' x 8' sheets. It is easy to work with if you order 1/16" thick. Before I made my kicker boxes I made some simple kick panels out of ABS and I just tucked them in the windlace in the door to hold them into place. They could be easily covered with material if your choose. I didn't waste the time as I knew mine were temporary since I would be replacing them with speaker pods at some point.

I used the ABS for my door card backers as well as my other interior panels.
