I am aware of mostly the dimensional tolerances. However it is NOT unusual to get a call from Toyota or Honda that when they stamp the steel there was a problem with the pliability or chemical composition. I know this happens less than once a year.They ship the steel back to us and who do you think is in line to buy it?
Jurek.... Thanks for the explanation!
