Need new headlight housings

I'm having a hell of a time finding new headlight housings and fender trim and marker light assemblies for my 88 t-bird. Also is there anywhere to get fenders, rocker patches, or lower quarter patches? I'm guessing I'll have to fab my own but thought I'd check.

It's all good I got in a rush and didn't scroll far enough down on the page. Some people just don't know how to talk to people.

Yea be patient, before too long someone will throw a pair up for sale or on ebay. See the BIRD headlights on ebay a lot, clearly much more NOS of those still out there then the cougars.

I'm actually contemplating using a set of 9x7 housings in a SVO mustang kind of look. It would be an odd ball that's for sure.
