These are VERY hard parts to locate. They were molded only for our ASC convertibles. If it is a matter of changing the color of your interior, there is a much simpler route. Take the poeces to an auto upholstery shop and have them recovered. Just treat these pieces like gold. They are only thin vacuum formed plastic. If they crack fix them. I recommend epoxy and aluminum pieces inside to reinforce it. If they are missing, and you are restoring a car, then try the used parts dealers and the F-body classifieds. But remember they know these pieces are gold too and will charge accordingly. So far no one makes reproduction pieces that I am aware of. Good luck, Lon.

if i cannot find them, i am going to have mine redone. I went to a shop today and they said that they could be redone for 55 bucks each for the rear panels and 80 bucks for both of the front door panels. thats 190 bucks total. I figure it would be best to get them both (front and rear) redone so that they would match exactly. Now my question is what material to use. Should I use tweed or vinyl or some other material. The place had a heavy black tweed and a lot of black vinyl. I think that they would look best in tweed, but what does everyone else think?
