Cuda Rear Deck Filler / Dutchman Panel Overview

AMD Cuda Rear Deck Filler / Dutchman Panel

As soon as I received this panel I went for a test fit on the cuda and it popped right into place. Little to no massaging needed and the factors that really set this panel apart from the others are little things such as attention to detail. This panel seems to have sharper lines and the proper angles stamped in the weather stripping channel which is something some of the other companies still have yet to pull off. Having the proper angles really make it easier to match up with the gutters / rear quarters without having to hammer on it.

Goodmark Cuda Rear Deck Filler / Dutchman Panel Overview

The Goodmark panel is another good fit and didn't take much work to slip into place. The only big problem I saw with this panel is that the rear weather strip channel needs to have sharper angles and will need a little hammer action to make it flush with the angles in the gutters that are attached to the rear quarters. Another unusual quirk in the panel is that the tips of the corners that rest in the lower window channel were twisted out, which didn't take much work correct but is still needless time invested when there are other manufacturers out there. There are some other small details that differ from the original factory panels but most of these aren't visible once the panel is welded in.
