I am tidying up my 172 and need some new elevator and rudder tip sets,
and dorsal fairings pre giving it a paint job. Any good experiences?
thanks, Rowntree

Best I can remember, mine came from here;
http://www.steneaviation.com/
They are fiberglass, which is more durable than the original ABS
plastic, and they can be repaired too. IIRC, they are pma'd, i. e.,
legal replacement parts.

I was happy with the fiberglass strobe fairing for my Archer.

I helped install some elevator tips and strut cuffs from
http://www.steneaviation.com/ several years ago. Very nice parts and
easy to install.
