Any home DIY'er can do them, they're not taht hard.
Cut the old ones off, line the new ones up (this is the hardest part) glue them on.

Are those reflections or custom molded ridges on the center part of the hood?

I don't understand what you did with the doors. It looked like you had a perfect set a couple of postings back. That last one looked too rusty. -- Matt

That's what I was wondering. I have some Taiwan fenders. They fit OK except that the holes for the plastic nut inserts were too big. They've only seen one winter so far. Do you have any feeling how the Taiwan parts stand up to salt corrosion? I'm hoping thier epoxy primer is a good barrier. -- Matt

not well at all , well compared to the factory stuff ... Its usually a thinner guage steel , so it wont last as long . knowing this thought is 1/2 the battle .. you can actually or hopefully , look after them , rust treat them , and make sure there clean , and hopefully they will last .

These doors were really good .. the frames had to be bent back into shape , and the bottoms dont line perfect along the rockers , hood was a little off as well .. but replacing everything like this , i'm able to line up body lines .. I'm happy with the out come .
