Paradise Alley still open? I need a wing!
Need a wrap around spoiler for my 87 Trans Am... I was going to paint it this year. I called them in the winter, they answered, gave me a price and I intended to order one this spring. Now, I call and the phone is out of service, no reply to their e-mail.
So, I'm looking to see if they are still around... And if not, Where can I get a fiberglass reproduction wing?? Hawks won't ship them to Canada and that's the only place I know of to get them... I can't cross the border to grab it either.
Planning on doing the body work while I wait for LS swap parts... Which means July would be an amazing month, LS swap complete, new paint and then enjoy the crap out of this car all summer!

They moved up north. No longer in West Toronto.

Haws will ship to Canada as I got my headers thru them. Did you call them?

I thought they were still in Bradford? I took next friday afternoon off so I could pick up my wing... This may change my plans. Hawks says on their site they won't ship the wings to Canada.

Paradise Alley is a rip?
I don't intend to deal with them too much really, just need my wing. I waited 10 days from the time my order was placed until the time it finally went out the door for shipping with Hawks... If it wasn't for the fact that I'm waiting for Rockland Gear to get more T56 swap kits in I'd be angry.

Re: Paradise Alley still open? I need a wing!
Some people feel Paradise is expensive. I've dealt with them 6 or so times and found the prices fair....plus they are close and wait time is minimal

Re: Paradise Alley still open? I need a wing!
Bill I completely disagree. I just called them as I wanted to compare something. My mint dash pad $150 there semi mint dash pad $325. I fail to see thats a fair price. Trust me Ive tried calling them for certain things as I was in a bind and needed it fast. Everytime I call all I do is LOL harder and harder then think why would people pay that. Hey to each his own but I will never ever endorse anyone going there

Re: Paradise Alley still open? I need a wing!
Well, went and picked up my wing. He stayed around a bit after closing time, with the distance I drove and the friday afternoon rush hour traffic he understood. Wing is awesome, $480 after tax. I also found last week that I need a right fender vent, so I called him up thursday and when I got there friday he had a few of them waiting for me to choose from... He threw it in for free. Took the time to show me how the wing mounts up.
All in all, had a good experience, and if I need more parts like that I'll give him a call for sure.

Re: Paradise Alley still open? I need a wing!
Does it mount like a factory wing?
