  • Wings West firebird spoiler

    http://www.wingswest.com/products_de...page=1&id=1486

    Any opinions about this spoiler? I've never seen one in person. This is the only spoiler add-on i've found for the firebird. Is there any others? Thank you for any opinions or information.

    Thats the style of spoiler im going to get. i think it looks better than any other style other than the stock trans am wing- u dont really need those massive wings that look like your gunna fly, unless you race or cruise at like 100 mph and above, u dont need that much downforce [img]graemlins/twak.gif[/img] -the frictional force between your tires and suspension onto the road is always, aero dynamics and wind resistance really only starts to come into play from about 60 mph [img]graemlins/burnout.gif[/img] . all u need is to reduce drag coming off your tail, plus it looks better

    that wing also comes in a 5 piece gfx set from http://www.lmperformance.com/2450/1.html
    they have other stuff too

    its cost about $660 for the set w/o shipping

      I really don't think it looks that great. I'd say getting a T/A hatch would be a better idea, they look sleek.

        sorry to say it, but i have seen much better. i do not like it because it looks like you are just adding an identical spoiler on top of the factory one. it has too much obvious line endings where they meet. if it came together a little smoother, i would consider it.

          yes the trans am wing is sweet, but as far as after market stuff i like this for its simplicity, for example -&gt;
          [img]graemlins/bowdown.gif[/img] http://www.supercars.net/cars/2003@$...%20427SDx.html -these cars look great as is; all they need at most is some skirts as far as exterior goes

          and no one cares what youve seen taste is relative
