I want to change my spoiler??

I have the wrap around right now and it is cracking. I want to get a new one but they are too expensive for me. I was looking and found a 90-92 Z28 high rise spoiler and thought that might look good. How hard would it be to replace it? How would I fill in the old holes for the wrap around? How would it look? pics would be great. thanks

I would assume that the mounting holes are in different locations, so you should get the metal deck lid too, or else the whole hatch.

Another thought. If you can't get the decklid for that spoiler, any non-spoiler decklid from a '82-'87 Camaro or Firebird will work, you just have to drill the holes. And remember, any Firebird purists on this board will hate you for doing this, but its your car so go for it if you like it.

I think I will stay w/ my wrap around and just fix it up some more and see what I can do.

There is a dude that put it on his firebird. Now that I think about it, there are two people. One is yellow and one is black. I am not sure which site they are on though.
