Default Car protection experiment. Need body parts.

I'm testing a combination of car care products to see if any of them resist egg. (this having come about of a recent string of Vandals that have plagued forum members)

What I need is ANY painted fiberglass chunk of body from any corvette. it doesn't have to be a complete panel but i need at least 1 sq foot of surface area to test. Damaged/cracked body parts are fine as long as the paint is okay.

Anyone have something like this lying around?

Check a junkyard, excuse me, a recycling yard.
I'll be curious to hear your results.

Honestly, you don't need panels from a Vette, any panel with paint and clear coat will work the same.

True, I just thought it might help validate the test. I'm thinking of visiting the local body shop ans see if they have anything laying around.
