How do these new fenders (& doors) stand up to the originals. Should I repair the rust in the lower corners of the good old American steel or go with the offshore stuff?

I was paying a body man and he was very happy with the quality of the fenders and the fit and finish as well. They came complete with emblem holes for a Chevrolet, which I of course had to have filled and redrilled for a GMC, and also come with an antenea hole. The only complaint from my body man was the fit around the headlight bezels. They seem to be coming down in price. Check out eBay this week there is a pair on auction for $299 each with a buy it now of $310. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/e...1&item=2478483967&category=33644 | | | | | Joined: Jan 2004 Posts: 112 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2004 Posts: 112 | Any other opinions before I decide on these repops?

I think I can handle that project, need a good bed one of these days. popcorn The Truth is Out There (Problay will by the repops for back fenders also) | | | | | Joined: Jul 2001 Posts: 3,887 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Jul 2001 Posts: 3,887 | 4d9r - if the only bad parts on your fenders are the back bottom, it's not too hard a fix - won't necessarily be cheaper, but the fit'll be right - I've heard nothin but good reports on the repro's, but no personal experience except doin the patches
