91-92 T/A fender GFX...Batch #1

I stayed late after work today to start building the first "for sale" batch of the 91-92 T/A & Firebird fender GFX pieces. For this first production run I am building 10 pairs. These first 10 pairs will be exactly like what I have on my car and if you haven't seen them yet there are plenty of pics here: http://www.thirdgen.org/techboard/bo...-t-fender.html (91-92 T/A fender GFX.....I made em!)

Since I am making 10 pair I will be building them all at the same time to make sure that all of them are identical. That means that I wont be making one pair from start to finish and then starting the next pair. They will all be finished at the same time. These will be sold on a first come, first served basis so let me know if you want a pair and I'll put you on the list.

Since I am very, very busy these days with my wife, my 1 year old daughter, and building my two birds I am allotting myself plenty of time to finish this batch. I will be finished with them no later than November 1, 2009. There is a good possibility that they will be done before then.

I don't have a PayPal account yet, but I will be setting one up within the next few days to receive payment. I will also be accepting money orders and personal checks. However, personal checks will be held until they clear before the parts are shipped. Once the production on this batch is finished then I will accept payments and start shipping them out.

The price for these pieces will be $100 per pair. That price includes shipping to the lower 48 states.

If you're interested then let me know so I can put you on the list. Remember, there are only 10 slots this go round. If it looks like there is enough interest then there's a good chance there will be another run in the future.

The list:

1. CharcoalBird
2. iansane
3. Mr_Bond
4. birdVSbird
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.

Re: 91-92 T/A fender GFX...Batch #1

so are these the whole piece that wraps under the car and bolts to the bumper and goes up the fender and has the air dam provisions or just the fender part as in the pics you posted?

This run is just the fender part. I will probably be making a few of the full pieces in the future though.

How does the nose do without the full piece?

I've had them on my car for 2 years as a daily driver with no issues, and no sagging. I've even popped a curb a couple of times with the passenger side piece and I easily bent it back into shape with pliers without taking it off the car.

If I had a full OEM piece then I could replicate it, but all I have is a couple of small pieces left over that came off of my car.

Glad to hear your going forward with making these.

I know in person, you can't tell they aren't stock, walking by & looking.

I only need one side. I'm assuming the sides are identical and just mirrored.

The spare ones off my 89 GTA are a perfect mirror of each other, so I assume the 91/92s would be too.

Yes, they are mirrored. I used to have both sides in perfect shape.

I just want to say that's really good work. I went to the link and I wasn't sure what i was looking for/at, they look like factory parts. by the way, when are you doing a run of heat extractor hoods?
