The rubber gasket under 3rd brake light. Available, or a pic of it uninstalled?

Thanks

I think I have a pic of it someplace. That's still on my 89 formula asc vert brake light. Sad the owner put those ground fx on the car.

The GFX ruin it for me.. But it looks like an otherwise nice car... The only reason why I could think they would have put on the GFX would be to hide the structural rocker support. and the car being black it should have blended in anyway, so... why did it need them?

The GFX are there to hide the bottom heel of the fender mod for the conv. conversion.

This is how the Formulas came from ASC. A previous owner installed the "factory" ground FX on the black one.
