     I am rejecting this response because:
    in response, I do not order parts through a catalog, I normally call classic industries, or eckler ind. tell them the part i need they give me a number i check online, to make sure it is the right part. then pay for it, while on the phone. I ordered both fenders, left and the right ones this way, he had no problem with the right fender. they were both show quality fenders.$269, which are now $349 due to price increases. I know in talking to restorations shops, they say sometimes parts will not fit perfectly out of the box, you have to tweek them or work with them. but I did not want the fender from the 68 camaro on there. that's why i ordered the new one. I did not get that fender back I need it to send back for refund. also I bought a new sub frame because he said my sub frame was bent. which is highly unlikely. would be very hard to bend. but i did not get it back either. he said I would get all used, or unused parts back when he was finished. so I want the fender, and the old subframe back. as far as the bumper not fitting, the bimper brackets that came with the car were not the right brackets. all in all I have a paint job that looks like crap, had a botched up wiring job.car not even close to being finished. when i took the car to him he it would take him 3 months that was in june of 2021. finally picked it up unfinished 09/27/2022.
