i have a real 91-92 spoiler in the garage that i was going to put on my 92. Honestly, i dont like it now that i have one. It sits too far forward on the decklid and doesnt overhang the back of the car at all, which i feel kills the style. If it sat back 2-3 more inches and hung off the back a but it would look so much better. It just doesnt look right from the side to me. ( yes i have/had it laid out properly)

ok, i can see your point, i never looked at the rearmost mounting points, i know on my 88 GTAs they were right up at the back of the deck lid.

So, if the original poster agrees in that way, then id say a fiberglass replica of the stock earlier aero wing, but still stay away from the "4th gen version"

i believe the 85-90 style wrap say back further, and looks fine.

i would also stay away for the 4th gen one, it doesnt really match the body lines well anyway. If you really want that style spoiler, you can use a rear 4th gen one, from a lt1 car, and with some spacers it will work pretty well and be cheaper.

its too round and doesnt flow well. i say the 85-90 spoiler fiberglass knockoff. the original rubber ones are junk
