one pice fiberglass front end?

I think i remember reading somewhere that there are one piece fiberglass front end for trans ams. My fenders and bumper need to be replaced so this may be a smarter way for doing it depending on the price. And are there specific manufacturers i should go with?

yes they exist, VFN has them, but they are for tube chassis race cars, by no means will they bolt to your car. ASAIK they have no factory mounting provisions. It would cost more than the car is worth to buy install and paint these parts.
