Chuck, I had not considered side panels but that would be a good idea if I can make them look like they fit. The sides keep the same width as the receiver past the back of the toplever. Side panels would allow that line to remain but the step down would make the transition to the smaller size a little better. I will look at some panel layout. My only concern is the downward angle on the rear of the receiver. If that is extended the panels might look disproportionately small. I'll just need to have a look. Thanks for the idea.
