I might. I all so found that headlight wiper stuff you were looking for a while back
Which side HL wiper you need again?
& you just need the cover for the underhood light... or the whole thing?
When I replaced my GB light I got mine from the dealer... rather cheap! I actually got two & put the other in my wife's V8 I'm parting... but those little suckers break easy... not to mention it's cold out & those little tabs will surley break! I will try to see if I can wiggle it out...

I can definately use all of the above!
The Drivers side wiper arm is the one I need. Lemme know how much you want for all of it.
Oh and I guess I should ask, I need the interior temperature sensing fan (the little bugger next to the cruise control ecu under the pass side dash) if you have one let me know what you'd like for that as well.
Thanks Ron!

Well,... Long & drawn out RE: read @ your own parrel...LOL
the front bumper on my car has cracks, & some of the lower grill pieces are broke. So I'm going to have a good fully intact front bumper stripped & repainted.
As far as the rear,
my original one had broke a few of the rear mounting points so eventually the rear valance came apart. So I cobbled a spair one I had & resprayed it. But it was a rush job to get it done. So when I get the front one done I'm going to have the rear one done the rite way @ the same time.
As far as the trunk & hood, I was thinking of dropping some weight on them. I have to get that rear CAC DTM/EVO spoiler completley done over again... so I figured to maybe get the trunk done in Carbon Fiber,
& while I was @ it I was thinking of haveing the hood done the same way.
As far as the front fenders... & rears, I was thinking of widening out the arches/haveing them rolled a bit more. That would mean I'de have to have the rear door & bumpers widened a bit. Since being a V8 owner yourself you know that the rear arches are encorporated into the lower part of the rear door & the rear bumper. I may be able to just get the top sections (10 too 2 O'clock) widened a bit... but not sure yet how that would look W/O haveing the other stuff widened as well.
As far as the front fenders...... I'm thinking that, if the rears would be able to be done I'de widen/roll those as well. Not sure I would like the fronts wider than the rears...... the V8's are very much different body wise as far as how wide the arches are. 200 20v's, Urs4/6's are a good example of how messed up the car looks. Being that the front arches on both cars are way wider/pronounced than the rears.
But,
if I think I wouldn't like it I may just have some composite front fenders made..... again not sure.
Once I bring stuff to my body guy I'll get a better idea of what can & can't be done.
So to answer your question.... not a "kit" there is no "kit" made for the V8. & NO "kit" should ever be made. The V8's are very unique body wise... even though some call them typ44's or C3's.
