    I was thinking about picking up a driver's side rear quarter panel from Auto Krafter's, but I've seen a lot of peaple complaining about the quality of their parts. Has anyone bought the panel recently? If so how was it? If the quality is still no good, could you recomend a different supplier?

    They all come from the same manufacturer, only one makes those panels, there isn't much of a choice. Unless you find an NOS one.

    I have a NOS set of qtrs. Not for sale,, but the AK ones are good enough in my opinion. Just have to be installed right, that is where the real deal is.

    Depends on how nice of a car you want. If you want a real cherry show car.....NOS would be the only choice for me. A nice weekend toy....aftermarket would work just fine.
