hawks have 3 different ones in their catalog, one for 87-88 one for 89, and one for 90-92

I know it's been a year since the last post in this thread, but I was curious if the piece that Hawks sells did actually fit well on the 88. If so, I'll be looking to get one myself.

I have a neighbor that needs one for his 88 as well. Any info on what you got to fit and where you got it would be great.
