I've ordered 2 full set of wheel opening moldings from CI & refused to even take them out of the packaging. They all seem to have 2 crimps & scratches on the inside flange about 1/3 of the distance from the ends. Does anyone know if this is the way they are manufactured? CI said that everything they had in stock was that way. Does anyone know if any other distributor sells a better quality repop? or better yet how about a full set (4) of NOS!?!?

I recently installed a set of rear repros and they were fine. I bought them from a local place although they are the dynacorn brand (can't remember the name). At the time, every one of the driver's side had the same defect (flat spot at the top) so I had to wait about 8 weeks for them to get another batch. You've probably run into a bad batch.
I'm glad everyone else is having good luck. I have ordered alot of stuff from CI & have been pleased with the service & quality, but the last few orders have been really messed up, duplicate parts & charges, not all of the parts I ordered were included & had to reorder again later. They always make it right but I hate the hassel. May try Y.O. or A.P.E. Sorry guys I just needed to vent a little.
