Anyone know of a good source for aftermarket front and rear spoilers that would fit with my '68 Barracuda Convertible restomod project?

@Frodee makes top notch ones for darts, not sure about 2nd gen cudas.
@RAT ROD AL had a cool set on his cuda.

Make your own, I did mine and not that hard. We all have our own ideas on what we want it's just a matter of learning how to design and make it.

Wow, I'm surprised the modern Challenger spoiler works that well on the back! That looks like it belongs there.
Can't really say the same about the front though, the most useful place to block air on the front is in the middle. More surface area to prevent the front end from lifting, better air flow through the valance etc. I like the Road Runner spoilers where they mount on the Road Runner's, especially the '71/72 version, out on the fenders. Still not the best from an aerodynamic standpoint, but at least on the Road Runners not having anything in the middle makes sense because of the parking lamps and lower grille in the valance.
I run an OER '67 Camaro spoiler on the front of my Duster/Demon tribute. It's ABS so it's durable and although it isn't a perfect profile match to the front valance it fits well enough, a little heat gun action and it fits great. It is a little narrow, but for $30 it's hard to go wrong. Eventually I'll make one that looks more like the AAR/TA E-body front spoilers did, but until then the Camaro one does everything it needs to. The '69 Camaro version isn't quite as tall as the '67, but it is a little bit wider.

Next version will look more like this
As far as the Camaro hate, only the purists get wadded up about it. It's a piece of plastic. These cars never came with a front spoiler, the Direct Connection piece didn't come out until years later. And of course those will set you back a ton of money for an original. Heck even the fiberglass reproductions out there are a couple hundred bucks. If I bump a parking stop with the ABS one it's no harm no foul, and even if I clobber one it's $30 to replace it.

When I bought this Demon in the 70's this spoiler was in the trunk. It bolted on with the factory bolts. I took the spoiler and wing off when I sold the car and still have them . The spoiler is fiberglass with no markings at all. but fits right on a demon with the radiator support bolts for the valance. Here is a picture from 1979
I have a spoiler by Randy on my 71 Dart Swinger
Made my own out of fiberglass and bumper cover on my 73.
This is the one I ordered for my 72. looks sharp!
Where did you order that?
