Figured I would buy a set of rear bumper guards from a reputable company like AMD (who is licensed by Chrysler to reproduce these) and they fit like crap on my NOS bumper. There is a large gap on the top and bottom. Is there a better source out there?

Looks horrible. First Glass, now guards.

The 68-70 Charger guards have been an issue from day one, although they fit the AMD bumper with ZERO issues....

As I have learned the hard way.

AMD spouting off about "officially licensed by chrysler"

means next to nothing in terms of fit, finish, installation, overall quality or satisfaction...
it's just a marketing ploy used to fool thousands of DIYers into shelling out their money...
thinking they are going to get a "better" part... for the prices they charge this is total BS

JMHO

All you can do is try to return the piece and if you bought it say from Classic Industries
sometimes they have a website that will let you review and rate the product and the sales
support and tech support...

HINT: You'll have to keep profanity out of the review.
That is very hard to do.... ask me how I know???
