is this statement true...

Original Mopar parts made of SMC (Sheet moulding compound) not a fiberglass reproduction material....Includes original part number. This is not New old stock (NOS) parts or not fiberglass.

Close enough, they were probably originally made with the RIM molding process, but SMC is very similar and it's possible. Although these materials often contain some glass fibers niether one involves traditional "fiberglass" as most of us are familiar with.
