Think the set I bought took about 4-5 weeks for delivery. The fronts matched up just fine with my fenders, couldn't test the rears as I still had a broken set on the car. This was for my Y88. I didn't opt for the additional mounting brackets, they're fiberglass afterall, they won't bend so don't waste the money on them unless you're going for a points restore at which point....why are you not looking for GM parts???

I've got some GM originals I'll be using on the 80 firebird.

Put a post in the Parts Wanted section. You might be surprised what you'll find. You can also troll the For Sale section here or on Transamcountry.com as they come up from time to time. Another option would be to look at Ebay.

There are others out there as well....

Franks Pontiac Parts has a set out there on this page - http://www.frankspontiacparts.com/usedparts/swapmeet.htm
David T's - http://www.davidt.com/ - be prepared to pay an arm & leg for them though
Fbodywarehouse - he might have a line on a set or get you repops
Hitman - have to ask what he's got
