I used to think you always had to get those things pre-built and the expense didn't seem to justify the means (at least not right away). I found this site when I was looking up panel costs and I have to say you've given me something to process. I'm thinking now you can build your own panels for a fraction of purchasing them already put together. Any suggestions of where to get materials the cheapest?
