Title: Need Help - 73 Challenger Door Panels
Post by: Ryanscotty on March 20, 2018, 07:49:07 AM
I'm restoring a 73 Challenger and need to replace the interior door panels (both front and back). I am planning to buy reproductions but have a couple of questions:

1. Are reproductions the best way to go? Or are there other options?
2. What company makes the best reproductions at a fair price?

Thanks for any advice you can offer.

@Ryanscotty (https://forum.e-bodies.org/mlist/ryanscotty_1266)  the best door panels are the ones that @MoparDave (https://forum.e-bodies.org/mlist/mopardave_10)  sells.  I think he got the dies from Metro and they are by far and away the best on the market.   :alan2cents:

We have the best panels available on the market. These are injection molded as the original were. the Others are hard plastic junk that are vacuum formed.  I DO HAVE FRONT AND REAR panels in stock. give me a call 586-859-2575 if you want to order. or email at parts @mikeriehls.com

thx David.

:iagree: That's where mine came from. If you can't find any nice used ones then this really is your only option. It's money well spend as you look at them every time you drive.

If you need black ones I still like originals but the Metros are pretty nice. I needed white ones so the Metro's were the only choice.
