Smile 1st Gen Aftermarket sheetmetal

Does anyone have any good recommendations for good quality replacement aftermarket body parts; I know the internet is full of distributors at different price ranges. I'm looking to narrow it down and get my new door, hood, and fender purchased. OEM is made in Mexico and quite expensive. Thanks.

If you're already paying frieght, why not junkyards? I know williams autp parts ships about anything you want. I got some fenders for 75 each. Great shape and they're OEM http://www.williamsautopartsinc.com/about.htm

Otherwise, http://www.rustrepair.com

Certifit. Definately thinner than OEM. They have warehouses throughout the country. But that's where I got my fender. Junkyards around here wanted $150 for pre-bent units!

Go to your local Pick-N-Pull next weekend. They usually have 1/2 price for the Friday through Monday on holiday weekends.

I got a nice fender for my '90 for under $25.

When I looked on-line from moparone.com- I thought oem was quite reasonable- $250 for a new hood.
