I am looking at new interior panels for my Cuda.  I see OER Restoration Panels for sale at an attractive price.  They claim to be OE reproduction quality.  What is the verdict on these panels?  Good quality. Correct grain? Fitment? 
  I searched here and the consensus is to use Metro panels from Roseville, but they are out of stock.  I can wait if the Metro quality is worth it. 
  Let me know what you know.

Thanks

I've got a set of OER door panels. They appear to be very well produced with a nice grain patter in them. I can't vouch for how well they fit nor how well they may match the original graining. I haven't tried to install them yet and the grain in my originals is in such bad shape with lots of heat damage and a couple of paint jobs over them.

Regardless of their OEM match, I will purchase a set of OER rear panels when the time comes so at least all the panels match each other.

OER panels are decent and rideable, but fitment and grain can be a bit off. Metro panels are higher quality and more correct, so if you want the best finish, it's worth waiting.

I think I would at least install the fronts before buying the rear?
What if they don't fit?

I've got plenty of time before I'll need rears, but you are right, I probably should test fit the front ones since I have them.
