Re: Poor quality items from LMC
It is extremely difficult to find aftermarket parts that fit decent, especially if you've very anal about fit and finish. There are some places out there who provide quality parts, but you usually have to go through the same painful process you're going through right now before you find them.
Plain and simple, the off-shore parts that many of the parts houses carry are absolute junk. Many of those places are more concerned about having a huge catalog that makes the end user feel like they can shop there for all of their needs. I would rather spend the extra hours restoring an original part than trying to make a new repop part fit. You wind up having to work the edges and elongate every hole to make them line up. It's frustrating, having to do that to a brand new part right out of the box.
I feel your pain!
