how about not crappy at all? i plan on reproducing every body panel including the cab and grille. they will all be offered in original and 1/4" thicknesses for the guys who like to beat on their rigs, and the grilles will be offered not in aluminum, but stainless and chrome.
thats the plan anyways.

I've heard a lot of bad things about LMC. I've heard a few guys that have liked their stuff, but just a few. Most of their stuff is made in china. Trey, if you make better stuff than theirs, I'll buy yours!

ive heard that too.. but really what isnt made in china these days.... the mustangs are "made" in Germany and assembled in Canada then shipped to the US... which i wouldnt be surprised if the trucks are done similarly... granted i know they have alot of US assemblies... but heard some of the trucks are still assembled in canada and mexico too...

From what I've learned, I will buy my body parts from either Dennis Carpenter, or NPD. The quality/fit is supposed to be waaay better. I'd rather spend the extra money for the better quality, I'm only rebuidling my truck once!

yeah that is one downside ive heard about them is that sometimes the specs are slightly off...
least thats what ive heard from the s10 guys... but when you got a vehicle that no one really knows what the "specs" on them were anymore i kinda expect things to be off a bit... funny thing is alot of times LMC is getting them right from the same mfg that the dealership body shops are getting their parts from...
