    I couldn't find the thread about what else to make. I am thinking that the rear corner pieces might be good to do. I recently took mine off and would buy some if available. The studs are all rusted off. I have a '73.

    2x, except mines a non-grabber, so I guess its pointless to waste time on making non-grabber stuff...lol

    Does he sell CF Grabber spoilers and corner pieces?

    I'm gonna venture a guess that the time and material it takes may be more than the money that he's charging. I've never seen something of that caliber going for that cheap. If you think about each one of those is custom made and not mass produced. Imagine what you would have to pay for something like that from a retailer.

    carbon fiber

    sure come out with a carbon fiber hood after i got about 8 hrs in mine to make it perfect.that was the second thing i put on my new truck though.i should buy one for the maverick to have matching carbon fiber hoods.at about 80 mph that hood on my truck is really dancing around.makes me think twice about installing the pins that came with it.:mad:hope no one freaks out about the pic of the toyota
