Sorry but, that doesn't look like it's real to me. The LED light in the spoiler is WAY wrong (too small). Also, the spoiler is supposed to be a 2 piece, that looks like 1.

Either it's a well done clone, or that spoiler was damaged and the previous owner didn't know any better.

Still nice though! You can't beat the looks of a 35th.

Has it had paint work? The driver's door and 1/4 panel don't look like they match very well in the first pic. I have always loved those wheels though.

There was one previous owner, an older guy who rarely drove it. The dealership let one of its ppl drive the car for years and he ragged it out, the paint is faded and the car was rough when I first got it. If its cloned he did a great job because the Seats dash and everything is 35th anniversary with stitching. ALso I took the pictures in the brightest day of the Texas Sun lol

It might be a two piece, but it's not an original SS spoiler. The brake light isn't wide enough.

Nice car either way though.
