I called this guy yesterday and he has all the cladding pieces in fiberglass.He says the fit and quality are better than stock and they're stronger.I'm going to get a driver fender piece soon,I'll put up a post after I get it and see how it fits.

Re: any company make repro ty body kits?

I emailed Pauls as well, and I was quoted at $250 a piece for the front wheel arches when purchased as a pair. As far as cladding goes thats a steal, even for repro. The OE stuff Rockford has is insane, at $450 for one wheel arch and almost $1K for the front bumper cover!:eek: .

Yes I am working on it. It has just slowed due to the 110+ degree days here in Arizona (I do my work outside due to fumes and whatnot). But, I would say that it's not going to be done this year. Maybe next year at the soonest. It takes a long time to get each mold just right.:tdown:

Your other option is to put a Sy/Ty front Cover on your truck and put the GT cladding on the fenders. It helps quite a bit but you are still going to spend 1200 bucks.

your other option is to get the SyTy Clone front cover from these guy's

It runs already, but I'm not putting any money into it for a while. I have a ring to purchase here soon. After that I'm picking up an LSx for the Ty

It runs, but I recall a certain dyno session that I won't even mention how much power you put down. And you can't push that tranny at all. Whats this about a ring? Congrats.

Yeah, that was when I was running 10 psi. I fixed my wastegate and can run about 20psi. It still can't spool more than like 3 psi off the line, but it's a beast once it comes to boost. Unfortunately, driving it to work the other day, it lost a cylinder. I haven't had a chance to see what happened but I either have a physical problem with the cylinder, spark plug, wire, or injector. So screw it, the truck is sitting for a while.

And yes, a ring. This is also a reason for the delay in the cladding project. I have a small fortune to spend soon. :rant: lol j/k I'm happy to be doing it. :tup:
