    Hey Everyone,

    It has been awhile since I have been on here, but I am finally getting my Maverick build moving again. I am building the car to cert for 8.5 seconds and am looking for a fiber class front clip to purchase. Does anyone have any suggestion of what and where to buy, as Maverick front clips are hard to come across.

    Cheers :beerchug:

    Thanks for the input! Probably will go the glasstek route, but does anybody know anyone that has gotten the front clip from http://www.showcars-bodyparts.com/maverick.html?
    They don't have any real pictures up that I can see and that makes me nervous bying from them.

    Do a search on here regarding Showcars, they don't have a good reputation.

    anyone have a pic of there fiberglass from glasstek?
    when I can afford it I want at the very least a hood but the cost of the fenders seems VERY reasonable. I wonder what the shipping cost would be
