I have US body source fenders for my Road Runner. Not perfect, but with a little work, they will be just fine. Not alot of choices sometimes.

Thanks Doc. Picking them will get me better parts because I will be able to inspect them? Or because they won't be abused in shipping?
ACTUALLY three reasons ..... INSPECTING them ? - Yes ...possible abuse in shipping ? ..YES. And ALSO the saving of shipping costs.
Just a little bit of FYI .... this stuff is probably not in stock so it will have to be made-to-order. Ask them NOT to primer-paint ANY of the parts. LOTS of companies do-this to hide screw-ups that POP UP later.

I would call Glasstek. I believe they are located up in Naperville, Il. The stuff Ive got from them has always been excellent.
VFN is in Addison ...GT is waaaaay north and west of there.
You could always MAKE THEM beat each-others prices ....
That would add to THE DRAMA that the two companies have always had !!

10 and Challenger, I will call Glastek tomorrow, but from what I can tell, they don't make fenders for the Challenger, just hoods, trunk, and a clip. Thanks for the recommendation, they are fairly close to me.
Doc, thanks again for the warning on fiberglass itself, I'll check it closely.

VFN makes fenders for the Challenger. My hood is VFN and it is outstanding quality but like said earlier, you better order now if you want it by racing. They take their time making the stuff.
