Aftermarket Typhoon cladding?

OK, I am in the process of buying a Typhoon and am trying to figure out my options. I got rid of my last Typhoon because I absolutely HAD to have the Trans Am I have now... for that reason I would like to keep it. Anyway, I am trying to figure my options... either find a decent (not necasarily AWSOME) speciman for around $10K (give or take) and keep the T/A, find a really nice Ty for $15K+ and have to get rid of my T/A... or get a major fixer-upper (which I have found one) that needs most if not ALL of the cladding and just fix it up. Anyway, I seem to remember a long time ago, hearing about somebody who makes replicas of the OEM cladding out of fiberglass... do I remember correctly? If so, who makes it? How much is it? Where can I find it? I think I can get this Ty that needs cladding, steering wheel and column, and some minor engine work for $1500-$2000... not sure if it would be worth it or not though. Anyway, any help would be appreciated. TTYL!

Thanks for the replies guys! I just emailed him to find out availablility of his parts. The prices seem to be quite a bit more reasonable than FINDING OEM and paying their prices.

Thanks for the invite. I guess I didn't change my info when I relocated... its updated now. I wish I could come to the gathering this weekend... as I am looking out the window at a few inches of snow... my TA sitting in the driveway with no chance of going anywhere right now. lol I guess I asked for that one when I relocated back to the Kansas City, Missouri area. Ahhh well... if I buy another Ty, I'll shout at you guys when I drive down to visit my dad. TTYL!

Pauls kit is great. I bought the whole kit from him to make my '88 Blaz look like a TY. But now I bought a real Ty and will be puttin them on it cause the factory ones are broken or cracked in several places. Well worth the money quality is top notch. And Pauls a great guy to do dealings with.
