In a perfect world, I would've preferred something like the original. Which was smooth, matte painted, and perforated. But as we all know, those OE boards are impossible to restore and no one is making them. So, we make do...
There was another member here that is local to me, and did the FRP route as well but instead of white he used black. His burb was painted a bright blue with white roof, and his carpet/upholstery was black. So it kind of popped.
Not sure I understand the "Trim next to the slot on the side" question.
But the slot or gutter that the panel sits in on the sides, I didn't do anything with as far as trimming it out.
The trim I used for the butt joint of each panel is that plastic H trim that is found in the same isle as the FRP.

I thought about black, but I'm not sure how well that would look with my black carpet,black and white houndstooth seat covers, and black door panels....I need someone to photoshop the second picture I found with the white headliner and make it black. Maybe that will help me decide.
I found a picture of what I was talking about, it's where the divider piece intersects the gutter.
