I am sorting out a '75 914 and will replace a lot of the sheetmetal. Are there differences in the replacement panels and sheetmetal quality from various manufacturers? I've worked on other makes where we have fit/QA issues with body metal from certain manufacturers. Is there a way to distinguish the sheetmetal manufacturers from suppliers other than price point? If there is a thread on this, just point me over to it - thanks!

Pete would need to verify this but I think I paid RD's power bill for a month or two. I know I spent north of $4k in metal from them. I was really happy to get parts that could weld together without hours of manipulation. Here's just one photo (of many) where I was able to quickly mock in RD panels and get things welded in in good order.
