  • Mod 2 (TA hatch) and photos

    This weekend I went out to a guy who has a nice 4th gen camaro and firebird junkyard. I picked up a TA hatch from him for $200, its black, and is in real good shape.I took about 2 hours to swap the hatches, and I still need to get the glass tinted, darken the third brake light and switch the interior plastic to be 100% done with it. I'm real glad I made the switch cuz I think it makes the car look alot better.

          I was actually nervous about getting the TA hatch cuz I wasnt sure if it would work out putting on and looking good on my car. But after switching them I am very glad I did it.
          The guy lives in Mt. Plesant, Pa. Its about an hour outside Pittsburgh, PA. He has to have atleast 40 or more 4th gen camaros and firebirds laying around.

            i love those hatches the best. i put all of the trans-am stuff on my firebird. I know alot of people call me a Poser but i took off the WS-6 badges at least. i just like the way the trans-am looks in comparison to a bird.

              Looks good. I personally would take off the w68 cuz it doesn't look right with t/a hatch.

                  It looks good:)

                  A base 'Bird would look horrible with it.

                  The W68 pkg makes it look like it belongs there.

                  Now gets some wheels;)

                    my vote goes to either the chrome zo6 wheels or black zo6 with polished lip. get on it! will make the car look 1000 times better

                      Thanks for the comments. Wheels are definitely on my list, along with a full exhaust, but I need to take this one step at a time lol. I was thinking chrome Z06. I like black wheels on some cars, but to me black wheels are hard to see from a distance. If im spending $800 on wheels I want people to see the shape of the wheels from a mile away.

                      These Ruff Racing 278 chrome wheels would be my dream wheels, but I'm not about to spend $1200 on wheels any time soon.

                        I think it looks great with the W68.
