Any thoughts out there to (gasp!) fender flares? Yenko or BORT style?

As to who is making them, they dont want me to say. Basically they dont want to be involved in the selling of the parts, just the production of them. Thats as far as I will go with it. Things are moving along on the spoiler, we are looking into getting the molds made and hopefully that will happen soon.

As for the express panels or flares, would be nice but we do not have any to make molds with. Later on, maybe some could be aquired or borrowed but not right now.

Thanks for the update, Shannon.
Yeah, I hope it is Dave. And not that other Canadian company.
Bottom line, though - if the quality is real good - in BOTH fit and finish, then it doesn't matter.

It is progressing, he is working on getting the molds made but no production dates yet. Hopefully soon though as I know so many people want these spoilers.

The spolier being discussed here is the Astre 3-piece. Here are some photos I have of 3 Astres owned by members Lanse and Jeff (lucky dogs!!).

That's becasue they ARE Pontiac spoilers and only offered on PONTIAC's.
Are your referring to this earlier post?

Not what we are talking about making and buying here. Would be interesting to have a 3-piece Chevy spoiler for the Vega, though.
