I'm thinking of using a fiberglass deckld on my car (because I want to add a ducktail). Is there a difference in suppliers in terms of weight? That is, this is going on a street car, not a track car. So, is there a prefered supplier that makes a little more stout decklid then the others?

QUOTE(kconway @ Apr 30 2009, 08:12 AM)  QUOTE(jmill @ Apr 30 2009, 04:34 AM) Just bought the front and rear lids from them. They are very light and straight. Not that wavy BS. You can't use the stock springs to keep the lid up. You'll break it trying to close it. Tell them you want it beefier for the street. You just bought them from Getty and they need to be beefed up? They are light weight fiberglass parts. Their main purpose is to cut down weight. They do just that and the fit and finish is excellent. The big question I have is if you want beefy lids why go fiberglass. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Stick with the stock one. You can buy 3 good used ones for the price of one new FG one. Heck, I have 2 straight ones sitting in my garage now. |
