They are. I have a bunch of NOS of these.

 

[RaggedGT]

As always-impressive work sir.
I need to start watching the classifieds again- I need a donor for a section where the wheel well meets the lower section behind the bumper on both sides (rust .)

Coincidentally-do the Taiwan cobra bumpers fit decent?

Thanks man! Do not use taiwan bumpers. They dont fit and suck. Be patient and hold out for oem.

Something looks familiar in those pictures… hmmmmmm

 

[95steedamustang]

pass quarter stripped and this completes the panel stripping of the car. Except for the roof and Im not stripping the roof panel since I’ll be cutting it out. Also did some work to the flares to get them fitting tight

 

[bird_dog0347]

What is the plan for the roof?

 

[95steedamustang]

What is the plan for the roof?

Carbon fiber roof and sail/c panels

 

[95steedamustang]

Fitting side exhaust covers and cutting the fender flares for a perfect fit. Then clearancing the flares for fat tires and rolling the quarters to match up.
