I know I've seen these posts a lot here, but usually never about door skins in particular. I just want to find out from some people who have dealt with replacing door skins before. Do repo door skins fit like originals or is it a pain to get them to fit? Is it worth $400 for originals? Any feedback would be great!

Thanks everyone!

I put replacement door skins from Paddock Parts on my 1979 Camaro they were a B!TCH. The same also went for all of the other repo body parts. I'm sure if you spent some time, you could make them fit really nice.

just my $.02

My experience is that they werent too bad to install, but the metal is crap and you could push dents into it with your thumb. If my car ever needed a skin I would buy an original if it were available.

I've installed the Camaor skins from OPG (Dynacorn) and they fit nice, installed easily with correct lines. The metal is thinner. These skins are MUCH better than the Goodmark or earlier repo door skins.

I would and have used them again.
