Replacement body panels from JC Whitney

Has anybody here ever used them? JC Whitney and others sell these. You can get cab corners, wheel arches, etc. I too, have pin holes of rust forming above the rear wheel arches on my 95 F-150.

I had thought about using replacment panels here. But, I have only done stick welding. Do the panels need to be mig welded in place?

Do they look good when done properly? Do they hold up?

I would like your opinions.

Thanks.

i'd say stay away from JC Whitney if possible, they may be cheaper but so is their quality. go to someplace like NPD or LMC.

The replacement tailgate ($105) I got from JCW was a piece of cheap, weak crap!
The one bedside panel was also flimsy, so I returned it.

I did like the parts I got from Raybuck and Mill Supply
