Repop 1931 splash shields

Are the side splash shields for the 31 Model A good or is there fitting problems with the front fenders?

Thanks,

Based on recent comments about the quality of repro steel front fenders, I think the problems are with the fenders rather than the side splash aprons..

Contact Tom Jordan at Snyders and ask him. Tom will tell it to you straight up.

I used repo splash aprons from Sacramento Vintage on my late 31 sport coupe. They fit fine.

I'm no bodyman, but do know the curve in the front repro fenders is wrong where it meets the splash aprons, as Larry mentioned. A good bodyman can heat and reform that curve.

They will need a little massaging like most repo sheet metal.. You'll figure out where when you dry fit things before paint
