Spoiler Replacement

I have an 86 Trans-Am with the rubber spoiler. When I was looking up replacement fiberglass ones the two I found were: an 82-92 WS6 Wing Style from youngsfbody; and a 85-90 wrap around from hawksthirdgenparts. I want the car to look as original as possible but I can't figure out which one is the closest to the rubber one.

Re: Spoiler Replacement

I have the ws6 one amd it sits a bit higher than a stock 3rd gen spoiler. It's a 4th gen spoiler made to fit a 3rd gen. I switched to a camaro so now I have that wing and a superduty RAM air hood that I don't know if I am gonna use. well the hood I can't use

Does the spoiler stick out past the hatch lid too?

Re: Spoiler Replacement

I think it does, I'm pretty sure its even with the bumper but I would have to sit it on to know for sure

you can also find a spoiler from a 93-97 trans am that will work for under $100, check out my thread, its the cheaper alternative and it beats paying for a spoiler overpriced at 500+$

Re: Spoiler Replacement
