I'm not a body man but have dealt with and had many friends that were for a good portion of my life. I've always been interested in bending tin because it is in my eyes a true art form. The subject of original or factory replacement sheet metal vs reproduction comes up often. They all pretty much say the same thing, and that is, that none of it fits like a machined part and you pretty much have to massage it into place. So I wouldn’t expect any part, not even the original ones from your truck to bolt right back in place without a couple of pry bars and some well aimed curse words.
