i honestly think the exterior quality of the 01s is better than the terminators... my 01s paint was very smooth hardly any texture... and i know it was never wet sanded or repainted, other than the parts i put on it... but my 04 and many others i have seen have a ton of orange peel on them. Its not a big deal just what i noticed
I've also noticed that when looking at my buddies 04. His has a little orange peel on the doors, and just doesn't seem to be as high quality as the 01.
