High rise wing on the T/A

My brother had this hatch on his Camaro but with the new set-up he is going with lexan/fiberglass hatch its useless to him, so he was in a good mood and gave it to me! I think its a nice improvement from the stock dryrotted rubber wing and rusted hatch! Yes the car is dirty, its hard to avoid, the black paint runs everytime it rains, so I have some work to do when I get a nice week with no rain.

look good.

but personally:

1) I don't like how its just a tad narrow then the body (Camaros are skinnier with the tailights wrapping around the body)

2) I'm a big fan of the stock look, and love the aerospoiler on 85-90 Trans AM's

Regardless of how it looks, it's definitely better than the wing that was on it before, seeing as how this one not falling apart!

I am well aware of what a Camaro looks like
I also like the look of the stock wing that was on it, but it was shot and this was free!

He has a '91, his car is actually red. He never painted the hatch, lucky me! Yeah his car has been put on hold for a few years now since he got married and has two kids. He is hoping to have it ready for next year, I forgot what the class is called but its an Outlaw Radial class of some sort. To be competitive in the class you need around 2HP per cube using a 23* head(small blocks) and the biggest tire you can run is a 265. I'm sure someone on here knows what class it is, I just cant remember. Somewhere in the 9.00 range all motor.

I think it looks almost factory and I like it. Something different that doesn't look out of place. It's like the notchback rear glass that was on some late model GTA's, you either loved it or hated it.

I do not like it. I am a fan of the stock T/A wings and am a big fan of the 91-92 Wings. As long as you like it thats all that matters!

Lol, there is a decent amount of tread left on those bicycle tires! They'll be on there for a while!

ive always thought that the t/a's look a hell of a lot better with the high rise spoiler than the camaro's did. they fit the flashy look of the t/a and kind of sees a third gen take on the fourth gen high rise spoiler. looks badass
