Problem is they ALMOST don't exist. Most of them come as part of a kit and you will have a hard time finding a place willing to sell individual parts of the kit. There are some others, as you may have seen on ebay, that will come close to fitting however are VERY POORLY done and ill fitting. Even if you DO manage to find one, they are terribly expensive, have seen them around $300-$500 range, and really are not worth it.

MrFuel, I'd love to be contacted too!

I feel left out not having a "Mr" name...

Only reason I'm doing first gen. Is because that's the car I have. But if I can get my hands on a second gen or so, I'll do those as well.

They will be made out of fiberglass. But you think poly will be better?

Ya, I'm looking to make this roof wing fit like any other top of line brand out there.

I'm also going to make camber upper control arms for the first gens too.
