I was just wondering if anybody has used the new USA made front fenders for a 69 Camaro? For the price of $795.99 compared to $259.95 you would think they are a lot better. At a time where its getting alot harder to find NOS fenders is this a comperable choice.

normally US made is better on pretty much anything, And from my experience the fenders r better, made of heavier gauged metal better fit so on so forth, But as always at a premium price. If u have the cash to spend on it go with US, but if not the aftermarket stuff can be good enough.

That's the way I look at it also but I was just hoping someone could verify that the quality was that much better. It does not seem like they are alot less expensive than NOS if you can find them. So I quess my real question is. Is it still better to try and find some NOS fenders?

You've got to remember that NOS fenders are made from dies that are very old and usually very worn out. That was a problem with the GM parts at the end of their cycle. I don't know this as if I were there, I've just read a lot about this. just my 2 cents.
