Anyone have any experience with the body panles from Just Kampers?
In particular the fenders/heater channels and floorpans?

are the panels green?
if yes they are the best money can buy.

Nah they are not the green ones as they dont seem to make those for late models..
From what I can gather on the interweb, the heater channels are shite but the fenders and aprons etc are pretty good...
Anyone else got any commentary?

Got some for my bus, they are brazilian. The metal is thick, the pressings are poor. pretty much what you would expect honestly.
But as mentioned. They have get service and free shipping. got to be happy with that

Just checked out the Kiassicfab sight. They don't seem to have a large range of product! Eg no Beetle hoods, rear fenders at all or am I missing
something?

They originally started just making Barndoor and then later split parts.
They are slowly increasing their range of other models but are known as the best split panel manufacturers

I bought and installed JK heater channels,
They are thin, you need to enlarge the holes in the pan to line up with the nutserts in the channels, you also need to tap the nutserts,
The first bolt i put in, the b@stard popped off inside the channel, luckily i hadnt welded the channels in yet, so i driled a hole and welded each
nutsert to the bottom of the channels.
I also had to drill and weld the underside of each channel along each edge, so i could trim it down (the spotwelds were mostly cut off when i trimmed
the edges.
Next time i think i will shell the cash for better channels, and i also had to wait ages for the second channel to show up, and they came pre dinged
lol.
I bought a set of A pillar repair panels too, Thin, wasnt impressed with them, got rid of them when i came across a nos set.
I bought a few of the mild steel sheets they offer, they were good.
