Someone still makes a body kit!!

On a last ditch effort to find one I emailed http://www.showcars-bodyparts.com/thunderb.html to see if they still produced the bodykit part #14000 for the tbirds. Just literally emailed them about an hour ago and this was my second attempt at contacting them. They have already emailed me back that they do infact still have the molds to produce this kit http://www.showcars-bodyparts.com/T-BIRD-87-88-KIT.jpg . Im gonna have to start putting the money back for it and either see if I can mod it to work with a TC bumper or find a standard bumper to work with. I figured Id pass this on as every once in a while when a kit does pop up its gone almost immediately. Here is exactly what was responded back to me:

Anybody bit the bullet on this kit yet?

I'm in the market for one right now, but would rather not be the guinea here, not knowing anything about this company personally.

I've heard bad things about that place. They've been around forever though.

they wanted to charge me $350 per side for rocker panels for my cougar, and said they couldn't guarantee them to be rust free..
