Normsfiberglass Sky fenders
« on: April 15, 2010, 03:38:31 PM »
Hello Ive been prototypeing these for a while now. Have the first set on and they fit great. These have functional grilles with a spear to match the body lines. We can make the grilles longer for a more aggressive look, though I wanted to start with a subtle purpose look first. These are not factory stock looking though they mount the same, the front leading edge where the wheel well fits into is not reccessed, as the same on the Solstice. If you have to have stock ones, check out DDMs there quality is always first rate too. Ready to prime and paint, $395.00. Thanks for looking Norm 574-255-7843

new prototype


fitted with side skirts and they work too!

Hello first, thankyou for all the great comments. Opening the vents more, making them longer with more grille showing. This would increase the air movement and make it more aggressive. Thanks Norm

Beautiful modification and opening up of the side vents.
 :thumbs: Much better than OEM.


Maybe that center spear could be a little bit thicker . . . . . . . more like this '63 droptop?

Hello Josh, thankyou for being so kind. Yes it seems I need to find another webmaster as mine pooped out on building me a new one as Im no computer guy. Side skirts are not hard to install as we are constantly improving the install method using double sided tape across the top and factory fasteners elsewhere. You can call me at 574-255-7843 and the side skirts are $395.00 set. Thanks again Norm

That looks awesome.

Any Plans on enhancing the front bumper?
Now that you have a rear valence,side skirts and side fenders, it's the last piece of a total kit.

Hello Im working on a front splitter now and the side skirt was just loosely put on for fitting, normally it has a grille behind the vent. Thanks again Norm
