Here is one modded spoiler you can't miss!

Ever wondered what you could do to that old base model factory spoiler to get more wow! NOT!

That is plain scary! Not soemthing I would ever do in a million years! And you all know I'm not someone who will call out someone's effort to be different and customize their ride! But I just had to say something when I saw the close up of the close up of the pedastels...whew...I'm amazed the thing has stayed on the car going over 25mph!

This is an AFTER MARKET rear deck lid for a 1988 Pontiac Firebird. Only available for 1988 year model as a $1000.00 option. VERY RARE. This is a used part that should fit all 1981 thru 1991 F Cars - Third Generation. (Pontiac Firebird and Chevy Camaro)
"Rare"
"1981 to 1991"

Well, and remember that I love your car, so there is NO INSULT INTENDED, but you do have a wing on top of a wing, after all.

(but that one on ebay is still scary as heck)

I know I have commited the ultimate 3rd gen faux paux myself... ... a double decker spoiler! Well at least mine is not the double decker 2 stock bird spoilers. I was leary to do the stacking, not really something I planned either. Just kind of jumped out at me when I saw the 88 camaro spoiler. I tried it at Hawks before I got it, and something just seemed right. The two spoilers, 2 me, just seemed to fit together. Everyone thought I was nuts when I talked about it, but actually thought it worked together. Believe it our not there is a guy in Griffin, GA. that has duplicated my spoiler. Joe saw it when he was calling on a customer down there.

woow. Immitation IS the highest form of flattery... I even considered doing something to my front & rear bumpers with the spoilers on my '87 v6 the way you did, but then I got the '86 with GFX and it scrapes as it is..
