Inner Fender Question

Are any of the reproduction inner fenders worth a darn? Any recommended vendors? I usually prefer original metal, but I'm having trouble locating a decent passenger one locally.

Re: Inner Fender Question

I used a pair of Tri-Plus inners on a customers truck, and was VERY happy with them!

Re: Inner Fender Question

Mine were Tri Plus also. They actually weighed slightly more than my originals and fit quite well. I did have to use a punch in some of the fender holes to pull them into position, but that would probably be true for originals also.

Re: Inner Fender Question

Shipping is a little high on their site, but they do have a distributor about an hour and a half from here. Thanks for the help guys.
