    :nice:looks fine to me. The body shop decided that it would be best that they handle the ordering of the bumper cap, fender, hood and header panel because if they get a bad part they can easily and quickly return it. If I buy these parts and have to return them it will be an issue. They will...

    :UOTE=LaserSVT;7976670]The fenders I bought were the $90 ones and the seemed IDENTICAL to the 91-93 fenders. :nice: The hood was identical too but the second time I ordered the 1.5" Mach ram air hood and loved it much more. If you wanted to get a nicer hood or a different nose then I highly...

    Thank you this is very useful info since it is from the same company LMR. Does the ram air hood really work or is it for show? You replacement hood looks like the real factory hood and so does the fender. Both items just as strong as factory? Not thinner or lighter? I will also need to get...

    OEM junk yard parts vs. reproduction/aftermarket parts?

    I have heard stories that one should avoid getting parts like fenders, bumper caps, hoods from the aftermarket because of improper fit. Therefore it is better to go to junkyard and get the used/recycled OEM parts. Has anyone here had any bad luck or good luck with aftermarket/reproduction...

    We checked what we could find and nothing is that low in cost. The lowest cost found was on a front bumper cap for GT for $100 at a junkyard. For the most part the junkyard prices were still a little more than LMR even though junkyard parts are OEM.

    Was it that CAPA certified replacement fender they sell for 89.95? Same thing on the hood replacement for $214. Were the parts thinner / lighter or anything like that?

    It's $135 truck freight for hood. But I would order all 3 or 4 items like the fender, bumper cap, and hood so then I only have to pay that $135.00 once. So that most likely was a reproduction hood and the fault of the shipping company not LMR. Otherwise how was the quality of the hood...

    No not a rear bumper but the front. It is a 1988 Ford Mustang GT that's going to need a front bumper cap, LH fender, hood, header panel for behind headlights and a LH headlight, parking light and sidemarker amber light. Most likely the parts can be found at a junk yard which will be alot...

    I guess that would be up to the body repair and paint shop if we bought all those parts for around $1,000 but everybody shop has warned me that they prefer to use OEM new if available or junk yard OEM as most of the parts made for this car are discontinued. The bodyshops told me it is usuallly...

    I was searching for a bumper cap, LH fender, hood, and header panel that goes behind headlights, along with a LH complete headlight with parking lamp and sidemarker light. I looked at the prices with this company and they are ALOT lower than OEM parts from a junkyard. The prices can be double...
