Re: Anybody ever heard of TriPlus? Or used them for sheetmetal needs?

Given a choice,Tri-Plus generally is the better part.This is definately true in outer rockers.And,they are an important piece to have fit.
I don`t believe N.O.S. parts are seconds or made from worn dies.They are the exact same part made right along with the parts that are bolted from factory.If these parts were abundant and available,it would be the absolute best way to go.But,they`re not.I like good used sheetmetal second to N.O.S.I`ve never used aftermarket.That time will come soon enough.
The best thing to do,wherever you look for parts,is ask who made the part and ask about the fit.
