Default L88 distance kit

Back in the days it was possible to buy from Gm dealers, parts from the performance catalog like, FIA road racing light kit , L88 front and rear flares...ect...
In the process of submitting a file to the racing authority here in Australia for parts eligibility . I need to provide and demonstrate the original GM part numbers and that they were available in 68 to 71.

The parts I am looking for are:

FIA road racing light kit or individual part numbers : clear covers, head light support ( corvair ) ....

FIA front spoiler

Windshield wiper cover kit or wiper panel delete. But I am not sure if this one was a GM part

In fact they were the parts fitted to AIR and Owen Corning L88

I would really appreciate any help that I can find
Many thanks in advance.

PS: I sent an email to classic aircraft auto inc, as they were selling them in period,. Waiting for a reply.

just because GM sells or sold it doesn't mean it was sold for on-highway use.

Are you looking for something like this? These are from this catalog dated March 9, 1972

There are plenty of people repro ing and selling all of the parts you are looking for. All you have to do is google them, or at least look on ebay. In fact several people now make and sell the parts as a package.
