i was thinking of purchasing some new doors and fenders instead of using my old ones. they are pretty clean. i would like to use new stuff if possible but i don't want to get into any junk overseas stuff that don't fit worth a $&%. i know i've touched on this subject before, but didn't get too much feedback. hope someone who has used this new stuff before can shed some light on the situation. thanks everyone.

It's all overseas junk. I only use it if I can't restore/patch the factory tin or find good used parts for a reasonable price.
..yup "ed's" right..it's ALL import..goodmark supplys most of it to the venders,and you WILL have to work with whatever you get I don't know about the doors never used them but the fenders and misc sheet metal Ive bought had to be "massaged" to fit properly...holes aligned...shimms put in.just your garden variaty "peek'in & tweek'in" but the end result depends on how much time youe willing to put in it there is no "slap in on primer it" deal here...good luck.....
