UPDATE:
I just ordered one over the phone. Be advised that the price is $125, plus $14 shipping, as opposed to the $100 price listed on the website. He claims shipping will take about a week. Will update the board with pictures and evaluation when it arrives. |

I had to have one sculpted by a fiberglass shop, but since then I found a source, but know of no one who has used one.
You can find the nose source by going to the web site memturbo.com and sniff around a bit, it is a guy that loves the chevy powered big canadian pontiacs but don't hold that against him!

I dont think the thickness is much of an issue. Fiberglass technology has probably improved over the years to where the added thickness is not warranted. The piece feels "strong" enough.
My Bonnie did not have a nose on it when I got it, so I have no idea if the mounting points are correct or not. With todays wind chill of 30 below zero I was just not curious enough to go find out, either! |

The 69 stock nose piece Endura rubber material is thick (about 3" deep and behind it is a metal mounting brace that the endura is poured around.
The replacement thin piece you have will need to somehow mount to the metal mounting piece but the question is how will the space between the two now be made up? Anyway please keep us posted, a few of us will be interested to learn how you mounted your new nose piece.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
