Nice! Great shots showing the after market pans! On a scale of 1 to 10, what rating would you give their fit & finish Randy?

The large panels fit really well. The smaller ones , toe boards and trunk drop offs needed a bit of finessing. Overall I was impressed with the offshore parts. I would rate them at 8.

        Nice job

 I remember that purchase and the consequent bail out after. Obviously the right guy got it after to make it right. Great job.
