It bolts to the decklid. the one in the pic is not actually for camaro, I'll be trimming it and installing it, as soon as I make it to Toledo to pick up a fiberglass hatch, that the guy is dragging his feet on shipping.
Thanx for fixing the link

Yes, the pedestal is on top, I'm planning on offering them polished, Anodized, and paint prepped.
The ohio one. the guy is in Oak Harbor. He was supposed to get it to UPS before he left on vacation. I'd Pay someone to run up there and grab it, and maybe meet an 18 wheeler at the Stony ridge petro.

i think i need to see this on the car to decide if i like it or not...it would so away with the side pieces so you would have to fill the holes in on the sides of the car...but it might just look cool...get some pics of it on a car so we can decide.

When is this all going down?

I don't know oak harbor but I go out to the truck stop all the time. Gas is much cheaper there.

I might be able to help ya out by then or soon after. My wagon is down getting the fuel leaks figured out But it should have plates n insurance in the next week or so.

I do know shipping anything by UPS is a PITA. I worked there and would not ship anything I cared about or is breakable through them. You can get insurance but they pay the shipper not the receiver. And I have heard many stories of the shipper keeping the bulk of the check. A hood sold for $200 with $500 insurance. The shipper will just send the $200 you lost. Even though it will cost you $500 to replace the hood you got for only $200.

Its not as easy but I use only FedEx/RPS and USPS only. I love USPS as they give me everything I need free to ship [boxes, tape]and I pay n print my own label on line.walk into the post office at 4:45pm Friday n set my crap down n leave while everyone waits in line.
