well ive been round and round on purchasing aluminum parts...and after several discussions have decided not to purchase aluminum wings. mine are in excellent shape and the paint is good. i hate to pass up such a bargain as kindercar proposed but hopefully i made the better decision.

Unless you are competing in your car there is no point in fitting aluminium wings if you already have perfectly good steel ones.

How about if you want a really shiny Nasty Boy? :jester:

i did buy the louvered hood. with the v8 allowing some additional air to escape especially when idling or moving slowly. i also ordered steel rally vents to install in the front wings.
