I'm looking to buy a new front cap for my 89 GT. Any advise on who has the best fitting and the best price. Anyone with personal experience is appreciated. Thank you.

Personally, i would look for a nice one off a parts car before i went aftermarket. Search your local Craigslist and/or junkyards first.

How bad is yours? I have redone them with small tears and spider cracks( just did mine for my resto and side skirts). I would say that 90% of the time the aftermarket ones fit really bad, and need suface work they have marks and little pits. I would rather find a decent used one, test fit it, strip it down do the bare surface and do any repairs/reshoot. you really can tell and feel the difference between the factory and the aftermarket one sold at most suppliers, it is night and day, some of the stuff the aftermarket has done okay at this one they have not yet IMHO.
