Far too many of the aftermarket fenders are cheap china-made crap. They don't fit properly, and require 'modification' to get them to line up right. The mopar fenders may be more expensive, but, they are MUCH higher quality, and actually fit right.

HeyYou,

I realize that most of them are probably china made crap. I saw keystone made fenders. I am going to try and see if they are made right here in the US.

I appreciate the feedback! I can't afford to buy OEM parts. That is my reality, lol!
