Default Camaro wing on a T/A?

The thread about the firebirds with no wing got me thinking. Has anyone ever swapped the rear hatches from one f-bod to another? I'm not lookin' to do this, just curious if anyone has and if there are any pics out there.

personaly i think that swithching them would take an extreme amount of work inorder to make it look decent, that section of the body is vary different in shape. it would be the same as switching doors/mirros between the two just my thoughts

Here's a C5 vette with a TA wing.
http://community.webshots.com/album/...lrovQ?start=36

There are quite a few custom wings out there as well as a double decker home made TA wing, modded factory TA wings, duckbill wings on a camaro, the mecham rear wing and about 3 different Firehawk wings for the TA. I haven't seen much for the camaro.

Below is a custom made rear wing like the older camaros had (duckbill) mounted on a new TA.
