    I took some fenders off of a car last week that had a trunk and qrtr ext. that I did not recognize. They did not look like the normal ones. They had an extra angle on them that made them look more rounded on the corners than the others. The trunk had the same line on it. The only other I have seen like it was in a pic on this site. What were these offered on? This car was an early small bumper. Just curious.

    The Grabber spoiler/quarter extensions are different than the standard 2 door ones. The 4 door ones are also different from the 2 doors and sounds maybe like what you are describing. What pic did it look like?

    Yup, ... sounds like Grabber stuff. Go get it. Be sure to get the little odd shaped filler pieces that fit between the bumper and the extensions, too. And while you are at it, grab the bumpers, gravel pan, bumper mounts, and valances if they are decent. Someone will want them too.

    There's other goodies, too, if it is a Grabber. A hood with scoops? If there is enough of it there ... just buy the whole car ... seriously!

    You might have just hit a small jackpot. Post some pics if you can.

    Regarding rear quarter extensions ... something else that needs to be pointed out is that the early ones are shaped different at the bottom than the later big bumper cars. You can see that in the pics that have already been posted.
