Default Anyone ever attempted a different wing on a TA?

I've always looked at my car and wondered what it would look like without the wing, or maybe with a slightly different looking one than the park bench I already have I'm not talking a ricer aluminum looking thing, more curious than anything else.

Anyone?

I have a 94 formula style you can buy ...

Wings west makes one big one, its tacky IMO, and one smaller style that looks ok, but it only works with the smaller spoilers (firebird, formula).

SLP made a different spoiler for firehawks, they look pretty cool if you like that different look.

I like my TA hatch myself.

A search either on here or on google with www.ls1tech.com as the site to search will give you some pretty good pics of all of these.

Yeah, I've seen the butt-ugly wings west one - I'm not talking about an addition on top of the existing wing. I was hoping for people who have tried removing the factory wing and put in something tasteful.

I did search btw

I wouldn't touch one of their hoods, but if I can find a deal on one of those I'd probably buy it.

I heard from a friend that the spoiler is of the same quality as the hood. After a wash it was also comparable to a bird bath

I think the meecham spoiler looks retarded... If you had a formula wings west makes a nice little lip you could add on , but there really isnt much in the way of ta spoilers unless you can get your hands on a spoiler from a firehawk

I like the IROC style spoiler that some of the firehawks had.
