Are the reproduction trunk/boot lids OK?
« on: November 01, 2005 - 10:23:06 PM »
Stripped the boot lid and found some pretty average body work has been done to it in the past.  Panel shop would prefer it if I could source another one but the Year One catalogue lists the one they carry as a 4 out 5 for quality (1 being the best / NOS).  Now I'm not sure how many people produce these but has anyone had success /problems with them?  Thanks.

Hey Oz,


We used a re-pro from Year One on the Challenger, came out fantastic, no faults found in this one although I have heard that it's a hit-&-miss game with the re-pro sheet metal, especially trunk lids. They are all made in Korea or somewhere like that, go figure.
