it's best to build your own kick pannels, it's not as hard as you think, just need some bondo, fiberglass, spray paint, and some genral sanding tools. along with some general house hold items, like plastic putty knifes, tin foil, utility knife. google sub box, and kick panel fiberglass fabrication.

heres a site that'll give you an idea of the fiberglass process.

it's for a sub box, but it gives you an idea on the process used for the molding. it's the same exact concept, but instead of a 12" driver your useing 6.5" drivers and maybe some 1"-2" drivers.

The mold you can get the kick OEM, used wax and fiberglass, I made the kick of my Sentra, here you share some pictures.

I really dont like kick pannels my self :| i don't like the sound, it's more accurate, but i just don't like the staging it creates. i'm happy with A piler or door panel tweeter mounting.

Kick panels is great , you don't have to cut anything in the car, no wires running to the door that will get bent every time the door is opened, and i personally think they look better and are easier to install.
