Try Cliff Miller as he has a 25th anniversary body and I believe he has molds for the strakes.  If I remember correctly, the 25th and 88.5 were the same lower rockers and other parts were changed back to 5000s specs?

Cheers
Don

I have those side strakes if you still need them.

I have moulds for the 88.5 strakes in my garage (taken from genuine parts).
Note that they are different to the Anniversary, the 88.5 strakes run in a continuous straight line parallel to the bottom of the door, the Anniversary skirts are parallel from the front wheelarch to the rear of the door but then slope gently up to meet the rear wheelarch.
l'm in the UK but if you need 'em.....

Hi guys, sorry to pull this from the dead thread pile but these side skirts are exactly what I’m looking for. 88.5 strakes. Is anyone on this thread still here?

I have still got the moulds, but I haven't made use of them in a while, I don't know what my contact would charge to layup a set, haven't talked to him in months. would you want them with a gelcoat finish, pigmented fibreglass or natural?
regards
Jonathan

Gelcoat would be great. Please let me know how much? Would they bolt on?
