Looks awesome. Definitely put a spoiler on it... and make sure it's orange

The black interior looks way better than the red. Is that a Cavalier steering wheel? What happened, did you think you'd miss your Cav too much when you drive the Camaro?

If you have the stock hood it might look ok without the spoiler, but if you have a cowl hood I think it should have one. Just my .02.... Looking good though so far

When your asking someone that would pay 400.00 for an aftermarket fiberglass replacement spoiler then the answer is yes. I always liked the way the 3rd gen Maro and Bird look with a factory spoiler.

Definitely a matter of personal preference though as I have had comments from people, regarding my car, saying that i should leave it off.

For me I like to keep the over-all factory look and make subtle changes ( darkened tail lights and GTA wheels on my Formie for example)

So the question remains... what are you going to do? Sounds like your leaning toward the " no spoiler " avenue.

Wait!!!! I have the answer!!!!! Calling Jeremy... We need another poll for for Jays Car!!! lol ....Spolier or no Spoiler

Dont make fun of my polls man :-)

I cant help it that simple people reply in vastly greater numbers when they hear "poll" and see shiny colors :-)

I'll do it if Jay wants to vote on it.

Actually he can just do the poll if he wants lol

later
Jeremy
