build your own. With Tamiya plastic card 0.5 and 0.3mm and some reference from magazine will make you lots of them. (don't too depend on others. Save some $$$ for other thing you might need in future) Moreover, your skill in modeling will improve if you build yourself. IMO

There are a few things that you can use to make wings.

1. Balsa wood

2. Thin metal

3. Styrene

The styrene or the balsa wood seem to be the easiest but the both have their pros and cons
