Viento side panels

When I bought my car I didn't get any side panels with it, So I want to make some, I have access to a gillotene and press and plasma cutter if needed.

I was just wondering if anyone has any drawing/plans or panels that they havent fitted yet which they could do a sketch with measurements so that I can work out what to make. Also what gauge should I be lookingf to make them out of? I was thinking of 2mm Ali. Many thanks Dave.

I havent fitted my velocity panels yet, im not sure if they are the same as the viento ?
I know the viento is a wider car but im presuming its longer & taller too.
If they are the same, you are welcome to pop over at some point and take a template. Im working away for a week but will be around after that, maybe if someone could measure if there is a difference, that might help.
If not, good luck & im sure their are some people in your area that will reply.

Viento panels are longer than the Velocity.

Paper / cardboard template is my suggestion.

looking at it I would say there roughly 380 x 2500 ish so probably alot bigger than a velocity but thanks for the offer.
