How did you like the doors from AMD ?
I saw a hint of where a R/T emblem was on trunk lid, did someone just put that on there?

I love the smell of race fuel in the morning

There was a foil R/T emblem the someone glued on. Trunk lid is original to the car.
The doors from AMD were good. AMD 1/4 panels were not the best, had to do some tweeking. Some of the body lines were not as sharp as they should be.
Some parts of the left quarter panel body lines were sharper then the right side. But there the best you can get these days.

The doors were good but again some of the shape body lines tailed off. Seems funny that with todays technology you should be able to repop these parts at least the same or better then 40 years ago. My floor pan and trunk were good but again, apples to apples not exact as original.. Oh well i should not be so picky i guess.
We had way more crap 20 years ago to deal with, that sheet metal repop was junk..

The colour is dodge 2010 B5 blue. I normally like to keep everything stock but this blue looks close but way sharper so went with it.

Hey 31ctg, is there a passenger side mirror on your car. I bought two new doors from AMD and they stamped out a hole for a mirror on the passenger side door.
I did not ask for this and funny thing is that they dont offer a passenger door with a mirror hole. They made a mistake. Anyways wondering if i can get a measerment of were the hole should be. If it is in the right spot then i will go with passenger mirror.. Cheers
