Challenger fender update?
« on: February 29, 2008 - 12:10:42 AM »
Has anyone heard if Goodmark fixed the fenders. I heard they were going to, but I was wondering if anyone can confirm that. Also anyone heard about the new fenders from AMD?

From what I've heard, they still have a lot of the bad ones to sell before the correct ones hit the market.

Either way, what are they going to do to please those of us that have already bought the poorly done ones?

A whole lot of rust and very little time to work on it...

The lower body line points in the opposite direction compared to the door body line (points down instead of up) making it look like a v where the door meets the fender. There is a picture on a thread here somewhere that shows how bad it is.

Not yet. In my opinion that "red line picture"  in other thread is not correct. Is that door solid and has factory line?

Check out this picture. Original or Goodmark fenders?

I'll tell you right now the fender line IS WRONG. That is my car in the photo. The original fender body line was perfect till the drunk hit the car. The Goodmark fender line is CRAP!!!!

Go get 'em Purple1!!! I agree with you! the bodylines are supposed to have the same angle. why would they droop on purpose?  :bigshades:

Thanks bud. I will say the rest of the fender looks nice, but I would have paint on this thing by now if it wasn't for that line.

Goodmark doesn't care about us little guys. They sell the shops the good ones and us the CRAP. Please some one from Goodmark come here and try to defend these things. :villagers:

PM me the info.

I would still like to hear from an official rep in a public fourm.

If they would have done this to say a Camero or Mustang fender they would have had some heads rolling. >:( >:( >:(
