Repro doors and fenders for '58

I see some of the suppliers sell complete doors and fenders for the 55-59 trucks. What is the quality if these things like? ANyone of you use em? I restored a 62 and I can tell you those repop fenders were garbage. I am interested to hear more about the repop doors and fenders for the 55-59.
THanks

I'd be interested in hearing the quality on these, as well. I've bought some NOS pieces, but eventually the front fenders are gonna need replacing.

Re: Repro doors and fenders for '58

When I had my 59 painted back in 2003 I bought the first set of reproduction set of front fenders into Canada. My bodyman said he was very happy with them and thought they were of decent quality.

No experience with doors.
