Best parts source

So just curious if there's a preference in where to get body panels? Year One? OPGI? Etc etc
What's been your experience for best fitment, price etc?

These repro panels pretty much all come from the same one or two factories in China. They all fit like crap and are thinner than OEM metal. Shop for the best price, and be sure to take shipping costs into account. Some vendors offer low-ball prices and make it up on the shipping.

I'll add that there are many people on here with parts cars that sell panels. You might consider this as well.
