modified wings, any ideas
hey guys,
heres the deal, my trans am has that foam rubber wraparound wing on it, it is all rotted out. I want to replace it with a standard firebird wing I have, I like it better. but I want the wing to be a little taller like about 2 inches just for a more unique look. how can I do this. the pedestuals (spelling?) are attatched to the wing so I can't just remove them. please don't respond with any ***** comments. thanks

There is a local guy around here with a Formula 350, I noticed the spoiler was really bad shape. But a few months later I noticed the same car without a spoiler, then later yet he took a standard spoiler, put it on 2 1 Foot pedistals (Looks sooooo Rice) I never say Rice, ok hardly ever. But it looks awful.

From the side of the car a 93+ highrise looks good. But from the back I am not crazy about the fit, because it is so rounded, & the 82-92 is really straight, it looks a little out of place... IMO
