Default Panel Advice - Mk1 Escort

Hi guys,

I know this isnt the most "classic" orientated forum but I've seen some cracking resto threads here over the years and was looking for advice on replacement panels.

Who does the best replacement panels for a Mk1 Escort;
Magnum?
Hadrian?
Express Steel? (expensive)
Any others?

All advice and experience welcome

the problem i found when i was looking for panels for my escort is that different companies have different parts closer to the original

What i mean is that you might find that a company makes excellent near side wings but the other side is 10mm too short.....(yes a whole cm!!)
of course after that i was looking to find a different company's part
