Default 911r front indicators

Is there a place to get the front post clear markers and the turn signals,amber colored? I know tre does but wondering if they were offered anywhere else for cheaper. I was also wondering if people knew of a diff chassis that used the amber blinkers.

Thanks

I have seen them elsewhere, but not totally sure where. I think it was a gocart supply website that was reproducing them. I think they were all made by Hella. Check at rennspd.com too.

www.sharkshifter.com (that took all of 15 seconds)

LOL. Imagine the shock I felt when I started pricing out my R tail lights. I got the backers from TRE, the lenses and housings from susquehanna motorsports, the internals for the running/brake lights from Pep Boys, the terminals from O'reily's, and the fiberglass from Home Depot. Spent about $200 and saved twice that doing it myself.

Notice they aren't $100/

I've got a full bookmark of pages to where everything is the cheapest. One last decision I have is whether to do the whole gt-racing upper chassis fiberglass replacement, fiber replacement roof, or not even mess with it. The thing that concerns me about replacing the whole upper half of the car is the structural integrity of the car.

I would not touch the roof. Not just for rigidity, but also for safety sake. No amount of weight savings is worth it.

On the rigidity side of things though, I'd only go fiberglass on a car that had the stiffeners build in underneath it like on a cab or targa. The coupes would need a full race roll bar to counter the flex.

Would a fiberglass roof skin be ok? I've read they're still safe.
