The rear on a T/A convertible looks like the same hatch as on the Formulas. That must be why so many people on this forum called my T/A a Formula when I posted a pick once.

Zoltan - the last picture that you have is actually a formula with a t/a hatch on it. The bumper is not a trans am bumper. The trans am bumper looks more like this.

im pretty sure B&B has a quad tip layout available. at any rate, i'd put my money on it being corsa.

Talk to this guy Silver02TA it's his car. Very nice one at that if I don't say so myself. He has a Texas Speed & Performance “Rumbler” Catback (Sweet Thunder Chambered Bullet in place of Dynomax) for his exhaust but the tips are corsa's as seen in this picture.
