Re: Hawks Motorsports 85-90 FIREBIRD, TRANS AM LOWER AIR DAM (BENEFITS COOLING), NEW

Sorry to veer off in another direction, but how about reproducing the 82-90 Firebird front turn signal housings with a clear lenses instead of amber? They've already been reproduced authentically with amber, so the tooling already exists. Now just use clear poly/resins instead of amber. Doesn't seem like it should be difficult. And produce a large first run because they'll probably sell quickly.

Returning to topic...

Nice Air Dam, btw. The 3-piece is TA/GTA-specific, not for base birds and Formulas?

Keep the repro stuff comin'!

Nice to see these remade, a while back some one was selling the last remaining sets of GM NOS ones, those are all gone now. Good to see another option.

Re: Hawks Motorsports 85-90 FIREBIRD, TRANS AM LOWER AIR DAM (BENEFITS COOLING), NEW

Anyone install one of these 3-piece air dams on a 1984 TransAm?

Hawk states:

This is the three piece style Air Dam, will work with any 1982-1990 Firebird or Trans Am with ground effects installed.

Would like to replace my overworked/bandaged one.

AWESOME... Thanks for the quick response! Went to Hawks site and it was not listed for their 20% off XMAS sale... checked on eBay and it came up same price but when I put it into the cart it did include the discount! So I ordered it!
