Default TA Spoiler or SLP Iroc Spoiler

What do you guys think would look better on a Formula. I will be putting the TA rear bumper with CETA but I am keeping the V6/Formula front end but I am working on getting a Firehawk hood. I like the Iroc but it is really expensive yet exclusive. The regular hi-rise is nice but too common. It would also be cheaper and easier to find already painted blue though. What does everyone think would look better. I've got a lot ahead of me for the spring/summer.

Both are nice, but the IROC edges it out, especially if it's on a formula.

It was my understanding that these I-Roc spoilers can only go on Trans Am spoilers. If you can make it work on a Formula I would love to see the results.

You can make it work on the Formula simply by adding the Trans Am hatch & then changing the spoiler. Or find a Firehawk/Trans Am hatch with it on there already. But the IROC style spoiler will not fit on the Formula hatch.
The only way to change the Formula spoiler is to change the whole hatch.

I have the regular spoiler on my Firehawk. I used to prefer the regular one, but the IROC is growing on me.

If you were me, would you go through the trouble and expense of painting and stuff, or would you just leave it "as-supplied?"

Also I'm worried about finding replacement brakes lights for the IROC 15 years from now, since some people are getting the run around NOW from dealers and SLP. SLP claimes it's now a dealer part and doesn't stock them and the dealers don't have the part # anywhere in stock and says you have to contact SLP.

It's easier keeping what's on the car, is it really that much of an improvement over the high-rise. I guess it falls to opinion.

Why the hell didnt GM just make the rear spoilers interchangable, instead of getting a whole new rear hatch

If you have a Trans-Am it is. Simply bolt the other one to it. The Firebird spoiler is flat out different.

Why did GOD make a boy and a girl? Why aren't boys & girls interchangable? *That's just the way it is. No way around it.

I like the T/A spoiler better IMO. the IROC looks good, but is kinda odd. and since u have a formy, you need a T/A hatch anyway cause the IROC replaces the wing on a T/A hatch. IROC is different, but different isn't always better.
