Default Show car door props

Does anyone know where i can get a set of show car door props? The kind that attach to the open door in chrome or painted, and secure the door open but prohibit entry. Are there any plans or measurements on the forum, that would tell me how to build them?

I'll cut a section of broom sick off, paint it black and send it to you. All you have to pay is shipping

That's pricey


Nice touch though for the show car
