hello,

Is there any body think that it is a good idea to put camaro 3-pieces spoiler on the bird!! I know the "butt" are different but can any body photoshop one? love to see 3gen with ducktail sytle spoiler, especially like this one

 

I dont think it would look very good because it doesnt have the lines for it. On the Camaros it wraps down around with the tail lights and on the bird they arent shaped right for it to do it. Also Im not even sure it will even fit right because the rear quarters on a bird are a little different.

 

Isnt that the 5" 3 piece spoiler that hawks is selling? It looks cool, if it is im going to get myself one once I start on the paint and body work on my Iroc-Z.

 

You could put the deck lid section of the spoiler on a bird but the side pieces will NOT work since the quarter panels are way different between camaro's and birds. IIRC the bird quarters are twice as wide as the camaros are.
I think you could exted the ends of the side spoiers to make everything look right but in their stock form they will not work.

BTW that is a 5inch spoiler on that camaro. Dont know if its a Hawks.
Bruce have you sold any to Japan?????

 

wow!! that is one hot looking Camaro!! Love the color and the 5" spoiler.

 

Nope. Leave the spoilers on the Camaro's and the wings on the 'birds. No need to mix and match these two items. As noted above, curves don't match.

Like having Marilyn Monroe as a brunette and Elvira as a blond. Just doesn't have the same effect. IMO.

 

That's a hilarious analogy Jim Berry! It's obvious you give a good deal of thought to even the smallest details. I'm sort of the same way.

For instance, the other night I was watching one of the Sopranos dvds and I noticed in one scene you can perfectly see a nice 3rd gen parked in the street outside. I paused the video and cried out "Ohh look!"

Strangely no one else seemed terribly interested.

 

I got a wing off of a 91 formula on my IROC-Z. I think it looks pretty good on there. I know it's a 180 of what the original poster wanted, but maybe it'll help give some perspective. If weather's nice, I'll snap some shots tomorrow. I've been meaning to do it anyways

EDIT: Here's another idea for you. Try a second gen duck-tail off a bird. @nd gen's were the same way, where the camaro flowed into the QP a bit, but the bird sides went straight down. Since you will need to do some bodywork anyways, maybe this will be easier to do.

 

Has been done and looks like crap imo. Here are some bad pics (not my car):

Images removed- Check your images.

 

that looks pretty cool. i think an 5 inch spoiler would look awesome on a trans am .

 

wow, i thought that was an 86 iroc before taking a second look.....
hey, whats with the width of the license plate and the license plate area in the bumper? i thought that the export cars just had to get special plates that are taller, like that 91/92 bird in the background......

 

I think it would look awesome if the side pieces would go up and down instead of the angle.

 

That firebird looks like crap with the Camaro spoiler, (red) IROC rims, and IROC stripes. And is that a Real GTA?? Because that is a 86 rear hatch, unless its just a different hatch.

agreed then it would follow the line of the body and look sweet.

 

the bumper must have been modified, because there were no eu-bumpers before 1993. the 92 bird in the background is mine and it's an european car that came with the ugly mirrors and metric gauges.

I agree. Looks like it was a real GTA though because it had the correct fenders, interior and all GTA badges. He proably just took the hatch, spoiler and wheels off a wrecked '86 Camaro.

 

It looks like he wanted to make the cake and eat it too.

Pick a team and stay with it.

 

Rims aside, I think it looks pretty stinkin' good! I have NEVER seen that before! Sweet inquiry, joekickass, I'm glad you got restults
