I believe the repops are all made by the same Asian company..they all fit pretty good now days. You can always find used ones if you want flat fenders.. if you find used ones you’ll need to buy the patch panel and fix them because almost all of them are rusted out below, but it’s not that hard to do

Oldsmobile made the best-fitting fenders. OEM parts are always best. For a real 1970 W30, spend the money and have original "flat flange" fenders repaired with the latest patch panels from AMD. These new panels are much higher quality than the older ones.

I have a couple of extra very nice original '70 smooth fenders I can be convinced to sell if I don't have to ship them. I may bring a pair to the Olds Nationals next week if there is enough interest.
If you don't care about "smooth" fenders, there are plenty clean ones available for sale everywhere.

Hey Joe I did not see a patch panel for Olds on the AMD site are you sure it's AMD?
