Just a fast one:

Is the 87 Thirdgen TA wrap around spoiler identical to the one on the 87 Formula?

that looks a lot like mine.

It's a new one from Autozone, of all the places. I'll get it in a week or two. Solid build, rubber, unpainted.

Autozone spoiler is no good! :(

I ordered the Autozone spoiler and sent it back... its the standard firebird spoiler...


I didn't check to see if it would bolt up, but it was not the wrap around when I ordered it 6 or 8 months ago!


I'll find one cheap sooner or later.... darn it!

Doh! I just went over to autozone.com, and after some work it turns out that the rear spoiler for a 89' T/A shares the SAME p/n as that of an 83' T/A, so it would appear that you are correct. I would imagine it is just the small pedistal style wing that came on the early t/a's.

lopoetve, let us know what shows up!

Nutso. I'll still place the order, but if it's not the right one, I'll be a bit unhappy...

I guess I could do a conversion, but I really like the aero-wing.
