Anyone ever put a 91-92 z28 spoiler on top of a rs spoiler?

Does anyone know if this has ever been done? I really like the look of the z28 spoiler and I think it could look pretty neat if someone where to take the time to do it right. I know bluezee (I think) did something similar with his vert. What do you guys think?

What do you mean? Putting the High Wing spoiler on top of the stock dovetail?

What I had in mind would involve cuttting a notch in the back of the high rise wing so it litterally sits on top of the ducktail. But carlos's is pretty close to that. I may have to do it one day.

Please don't! One spoiler looks fine, but when you start stacking and throwing them together, you might as well buy VTEC stickers and put those on the car. It really ruins the look of a car designed to have one or the other but not both!

If I wanted to do that then I would put a high rise on top of a high rise.

Why not simply remove the dovetail?

Re: Anyone ever put a 91-92 z28 spoiler on top of a rs spoiler?

because it leaves really nasty holes that are hard to fill.

I guess this would work on a car with the 3rd brake light that wasn't in the spoiler.

I have to admit it looks better than I thought it would, but it's still not something I would do

Re: Anyone ever put a 91-92 z28 spoiler on top of a rs spoiler?

Thats how my 92 was before I worked on it. My father said thats how they came from the factory..

Word of advice, dont do this. Its a pain to patch up the holes from the original spoiler. So I just took off the hi-rise.

This 92 is long gone for those wondering.
