Zero issues with the quality, plenty of fasteners, good finish. I would definitely buy again and recommend but understand there is NO installation instruction. That's all on you to figure out ('52 Ford F1); I was replacing the exact same kit someone installed 10+ years ago (apparently a 3rd grader with tiny, rounded scissors); my installation resulted in much better results because I did these things, and DC would do well to provide this type of info: 1) install the "below rear window" panels BEHIND the fuel tank, they are cut perfectly to fit that way, 2) except for the "rear window side" panels each piece fits INSIDE of the body and rail mould lines; you'll see them when you test fit. Look for them and fit and screw as appropriate 3) use the LEAST amount of fasteners for the job, you won't need many 4) I recommend cutting the "under dash kick panels" a little short so that any leaks that may dampen the carpet won't wick up into the fiberboard 5) when trimming to fit the "rear window side" pieces - fit, measure and cut conservatively. test fit by tucking it UNDER the window seal; I was able to do each side in two fittings; DC has provided a solid product that is true to vintage automotives but to earn that last star they really need to give some thoughtful installation guidance, especially for scratch restorations that lack surviving remnants that can be used for reference
