panel door cards / interior

[shiplee123]

I've posted something similar at some point but didn't reach a answer. Im gonna b looking at sorting the interior pannels of my panel van soon. I like the privacy of my panel van but still won't it to b light inside not to dark and have an enclosed feeling ,so light and airy . Gonna fit a brilliant white headliner . Gotta fig out the door pannels / cards. Do i go half way up or all the way to the top ?
Gonna post a couple of pics of other vans and mine. Can anyone give sugestions what you'd do in a pannel on the walls

Ok the first two pics are examples of vans and the last is mine. Im wondering if to put half size door cards in the back and to spray the top half a light matching colour but not sure. That would keep the van from feeling to enclosed. Or do i go full ply top to bottom ?
Any other ideas very much welcome ... And pics much appreciated

I think I would use leather vinyl and spray glue it to the hardboard, a nice pastel white or something

Yes that was a consideration but half way / all the way up .... ?

hello
i would go all the way up
that way it will stop it looking like it should have a dado rail (circa early 90s) :lol:
