Either Wag-Aero or Univair can supply them.

Wag Aero's is a "L" shaped stiffener. I believe the Univair type is "T" shaped like the original. Personally, after buying the Wag type I believe it would be pretty easy to bend up a set if you have acess to a metal brake. They have to be spliced anyway.
