Fiberglass body parts Reply #2 – August 29, 2009, 12:46:44 PM I am guessing these are more race pieces and not a "stock" replacement piece? The trunk lid rusts so easily so I would like to replace that. The door skins would be a good idea also to keep the rust from comming back. Quote Selected

Fiberglass body parts Reply #4 – August 29, 2009, 02:49:00 PM well i do know he has been around for a few years with the website. wouldnt hurt to call and figure out the weight of the peices (race or street weights) etc with fiberglass it should never be expected to be a install/prep/paint and ur done... always have to assume that there may be some tpuppies required etc for a good quality fit. i rather trim something thats slightly oversize than have something thats undersize. our cars dont always stay square things shift.

Fiberglass body parts Reply #5 – August 29, 2009, 09:17:55 PM Those are some realy good prices, but, at those prices, I'd say thats a basic mold. You'll have to finish them most likely.I remember when I bought a body kit for my 99 stang, we paid $1600 for the front/back bumpers and side skirts, and about $400 for the fiberglass hood. Both required a lot of prep. The only thing that didnt require much was the Xenon cobra wing. but it was poly, not fiberglass.Still looks like some good prices, but I doubt thats gonna be street weight. lol Quote Selected
