Thanks Corey, We bought the car wi a set of Full goodmarks, and we sold them thinking the skins on the car were gonna work, Well NOPE, we found rust coming through the "new" skins on the car, so we decited to do it once and not worry about it later. So as a comparison the AMD quarters are crisper, thicker, and have every factory dimple, kink, crease, everything. The goodmark quarters were not as crisp, were missing the factory dimple in the rocker, and they looked and felt flimsy. Hats off to AMD, I hope to see more parts from them in the future. And thanks Corey for saving me some cash on the parts. Kasey

We have installed valance panels, fenders, hoods, complete passenger floor pans, trunk floor pans, rear body panels, etc. Just recently I had my first problem with a stamped part. It's a right side 68-70 B-body door skin. It's formed wrong at the front top area where it meets the door. I'll be adding and subtracting some metal along the flat upper door edge where it is supposed to curve to prevent hanging on the fender. Not a big deal, unless you have painted the inside of your door. Another good reason why we always test fit our panels before doing any paint work. Steve www.clarkclassic.com

Steve www.clarkclassic.com Please make sure you or anyone else if you see something that isn't right contact any of us or AMD so they know. FYI I put a charger hood on and found that the hood pad holes were just a little small compared to not only the new clips but the original clips. Took a small redrilling but I told AMD and they were going to address that on the next run. As far as the ebody fenders I am hearing if they pass this time it is about 90 days out. Last I heard they were just about there. Fingers crossed Contact Me about AMD Prices

The AMD Glass has a lot of tong marks and had a few blemishes in the glass. The best I think is PPG. More costly but way better quality. The only real good thing on AMD is the Chrysler logos on the glass.
