My 73 is in dire need of some quarters. I was thinking NPD, because they are close enough I can drive there and get em' vs. paying to ship them. Anyone have any experience with their panels? Who makes them? Are they the same ones everyone else is selling? Quality wise. I don't want issues when it comes to installation and fit, being that skins ain't gonna cut it. I need the full factory style pieces. Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I would really like to get this thing rolling once again.

Check out OER.
The first thing you need to remember ...AFTERMARKET is NOT GM and almost all of it needs some adjustment .
I do it all the time and sometimes i get a nice fit , SOMETIMES NOT.
This may require a number of things .. adding metal at a leading edge , cutting and removing a little and welding back up , hammer n dollying ...
sometimes gaps have to be filled to get proper alignment , so fourth...
theres GOLDEN LEGION , DYNACORN , AMD , and more I usually just order from Goodmark and ive had good luck with most of it , BUT NONE of its a perfect fit .
Im waiting for NPD shipment today !
I have installed 2 full quarters from goodmark with very little adjustment on a 2gen. i was very happy being it was a aftermarket piece. I think i still have one driver's side quarter and truck filler panel left over if you'r intrested.

I tried npd quarter, but ended up taking it back. I used goodmark. Not perfect but a pretty good fit. Needed a little extra help at the sail panel and had to beat the hell out of the wheel well.

X2 on this. I purchased Goodmark panels and they still needed a lot of adjustment. If I do it over again, I think I will save the money and go with something more middle of the road.
