its a love hate thing but myself i think it looks good but others will disagree because the formula rear bumper lines dont suit it. ill be picking up a 95 t/a parts car and im going to do a comparison on my formula with the highrise hatch itself and then with the t/a rear bumper included. i know the the ls1 formys can get away with using the side skirts but right now i dont feel to confident they will flow with the lt1 formys front bumper.

I'm not a big fan of it unless there is a TA bumper along with it. If you like it, go for it though.

IMO I think it looks bad. To me I would rather have the Ta rear bumper on my dumdumdumdumdum.

I'm biased, but I like the Formula hatch - the high spoiler is really heavily identified as a Trans Am part. The low spoiler indicates that I drive a Formula. To dress up the rear, I went with the T/A rear bumper... it really makes the car look nicer and more "finished" IMO.

I agree. I think it looks good! Formybird's car looks great w/ the spoiler & body colored filler panel (which I'm not usually a fan of), but they go together for a really nice look! I've seen the t/a bumper on formulas before, but not the t/a spoiler & stock bumper. I say go for it! Be different, it looks good!
