Searching for replacement rear wing... '86 T.A.
Does anyne make a bolt in fiberglass areo style replacement rear wing for the rubber stocker? What was GM thinking??? A couple pounds wieght savings on an already portly car???
I'd rather it be slightly heavier and repairable (fiberglass) vs. splitting all over and you can't do a friggin things about it (rubber), but I guess that's just me... LOL!
Can anyone help me out with a link? I don't mind a custom installation, but I'd rather it be a bolt in replacement or as close to it as I can find. Been searching all morning and have found only one fiberglass one for $400+ which is insane to me for a wing...

GM wanted $1500 EACH before they were discontinued... $400 is isn't bad in comparison...

If you saw what GM charged for a POS stock spoiler, $400 for such a good quality fiberglass piece isn't so bad.

Thanks for the replies guys. Just have to find one in the salvage yard or go custom I guess. That 4th gen style one does look hot though... I suppose I am saving quite a chunk per month having this car now instead of a car payment like I used to have. I'll just have to anty up.
