I think any of the companies that make box fins for the standard Fins Unlimited center box can help you out. They all should offer a sanded finish version of their fins, without the tab and roll pin, that is designed to be glassed on. You would think it would be less expensive to make a glass on fin, but I had one manufacturer tell me that they charge an extra $5 for glass on fins.

true ames. just ask they will make it for you… or at least they did for me… very nice fins

True Ames… you can also contact Fibreglass Fin Co. or Rainbow.

…or just grind off the base to any fin you like and glass it on.
