Also do u think an all black camaro looks better or a black with gold gfx?

3 piece, all black, unless it's an 82-84. Then I like it with silver GFX.

I agree the 85-90 T/A/GTA/Formula Spoiler is by far the sleekest looking spoiler, But to stick to the Poll Question:
I like the 3 piece better, maybe because I see more of them, but the highrise spoiler always reminded me of a Ferrari F-40 rip off... its not bad tho...

This is the stupidest thing I've heard in awhile!......there is nothing ***** about the looks of a 91-92 Z28 spoiler.....that spoiler signifies the difference from the RS and the Z28 in 91 and 92.....I know this is just an opinion but....I think the 91-92 High rise spoiler and the 91-92 ground effects is the best thing GM came out with for the Camaro's......I would NEVER EVER say any Camaro looked ***** with the factory parts and options they came with......now....if someone had a big tall aluminum spoiler sticking up so far that you could do pull ups from.....then I would say that's *****.....but the 91-92 highrise spoiler....hell no!.....they look bad ***.....nothing ***** about them...

I love the 5 inch spolier, when I find one, its going on the IROC. End of story, the Highrise is alright I suppose, just not on my car.

Cool idea I'd go with the high rise , they were cool before ricers were invented! I think the blisters are cool too, my buddy made his functional.

I think the 3 piece spoiler is the best spoiler made for the third gen that came stock....5 inch 3 piece spoiler is the coolest on though they took the best parts of the three piece spoiler and the high rise spoiler and merged them the sleek look of the camaro with the "3 pc fin" but large and bold like the high rise spoiler combine that with a pair of hood blisters and then youve got a great camaro...only thing that would make it cooler would be a blower sticking out between widely spaced blister IMHO

I always found it funny that in order to introduce something different on our cars in 1988 they opted to give the camaro a wing similar to the firebirds, and the firebird a spoiler similar to the camaro... sounds like they had some really confused engeneers in the 80's
