Hey everyone, I'm wondering where the best place to buy body panels. Especially bedsides. I'm in need of one and there are quite a bit of different options. Where's the best?

from what i hear, goodmark is the best you can get for these trucks. i have seen the cheap over seas parts and they are paper thin and not a great fit

Goodmark does not make fleetside bed sides for our trucks. I'm not sure if they make stepside beds...but I don't think there are any high quality manufacturers for these years. Just not enough demand. Like Cory d said, everything is offshore. I have repop bedsides and don't like them. Originals or NOS are the best way to go. lolife99 has an NOS short fleet bedside.

Should have stated that I'm looking for a short fleet side. It's a bummer they only have long box on that website.
