1951 f1 Rod Doors rear cab ABS panel upholstery advice needed?

I have test fitted the behind the seats rear cab panels (tight, but nice fit) and was planning the fabric installation and was thinking that gluing the three ABS pieces together and covering all three pieces at once would give a nice seamless look but I’m not sure that I can install the panel as one unit. They also could be upholstered individually with the material warped around the panel ends as they slide together giving two visible but straight seams. Anybody done either? Thanks.

If ya buy a carpet kit from classic haulers it will cover this panel up to the back glass with no seams.

You know what the downside of ordering parts well in advance and getting old at the same time is? You forget what you have! Do I feel like a even bigger fool then usual, I had forgotten what was in the carpet kit, ……the one in the basement!

Fred, thank you for taking the time to answer, you saved me from screwing up big time, and I hereby promise to never poke fun at your stocker again, ever.
