Default Staggerwing Spinner

Anyone know where I can get a replacement spinner for my Topflite Staggerwing?

My local hobby shop has had one on order for a month now.
It's not listed in the parts list or on the web site.

It looks like a AT-6 spinner might work?
It's 2 3/4 inch round spinner.

Appreciate any suggestions.

that would be my first choice..........the kit spinners in these kits are OK, but they are cast cones.
i've bought the truturn to replace my Super Stearman kit spinners for both kits.........much truer and no wobble.

I have a plastic spinner on my Byron Staggerwing that I painted to match the airplane. Unfortunately I don't know who made it but it has to be significantly less expensive than the Tru-Turn (not there's anything wrong with Tru-Turn, they make an absolutely outstanding product). Just want to point out that there may be more economical options out there, particularly if you want to paint the spinner to match.

That sounds much better.
If you remember where you got it, let me know.
I'll keep looking, hate to spend that much for a spinner.
