Just a heads-up about Replica Plastics...
I, unfortunately, have first hand experience with their products. To say the quality is less than good would be an understatement. Granted the parts I've seen were much more complex than the '69 "beak" (1973 Grand Am nose) they still give an indication of what to expect from them. It's possible to think that '69 nose might be (more easily) usable based on it's relatively small size, but count on a basic shell of the part. It'll be up to you to figure out how to actually get it mounted to the car.
I had bought the Grand Am nose from them as the preferred supplier (In Design) was out of production at the time. The Replica Plastics parts were basically garbage and their return policy sucks. I ended up buying the In Design parts when they started production again.
