i'm kinda confused, isn't the 3-piece spoiler what came stock on an 88? In any case, there's a group purchase in the works for the 5" spoiler made by Hawks. If they get 10 people, it'll be $250 each plus shipping.

nope not all of em, 88 was the first and only year that the sport coupe got ground effects from the Z28. it also got the low rise aero wing(looks like 91-92 Z28 highrise but shorter and missing the 2 center posts) and ya i know they werent on all the 88 SCs but most of em. im restoring my 88 V-8 SC right now and im using my 86 Z28 parts car to turn it into an 88 iroc, so i wont need the lowrise wing. anyone interested? its pretty unique

im going to use a 87-90 spolier and fiberglass the light hole shut. It will be differant, and very cost effective

I don't think there's anything wrong with a little 70s styling :-) let's hear the story about the kid on the t-tops... that's unbelievably rude to put anything on anyone's car!!

My favorite spoiler for the Camaro is the 88 "low rise" spoiler... that's the one I'm looking for, for my car. After that I'd say the 91/2 Hi-Rise. the T/A wrap around looks pretty sharp too.
On the 'birds I like the way the Fiero GT spoiler looks, the Hi-Rise looks pretty good as well

sorry guys, i was describing it from memory, i took it off the 88 today so i can get some pics of it, there ARE 2 center posts on the low rise. so basically its identical to the 91-92 highrise but shorter

would it be cost effective or with my time and trouble to fix it and sale it?
doubt ppl here in wv would be interested i dont think they know or care about 3rd gens.
but seems like they are rare and valuable to ppl here.
mine also has the brakelight in it.

Rare yes, as they were only made for 1/2 a year, I dunno about valuable however.

You could always do what a guy down the street from me did and put the 'bird wing on like in 67 camaro 88's pic, AND keep the 3 piece factory spoiler, effectively having two spoilers
