PLEASE help me find this car!!!!!
PLEASE help me find this car!!!!! I decided to put the wings west kit on my LT1 WS6. But as some of you may know, the front lip is about 4 inches too short on the sides. So i've been wondering what to do. I saw it done on an LT1 but that was about a year ago. I wanted to know what they did but i havnt been able to find the pic again. Well, today i stumbled on it!!! Please im hopeing someone here knows this car so i can ask what they did. I was just planning on extending mine with fiberglass but since i found the pic now, im hoping to find the owner and figure out how they did it.
WARNINGThe cars a little riced out, im only concerned with the fron lip, so if you want to bash, i cant stop you but please understand this is not my car and i dont care wether or not you like it, im just trying to get some info before i start my project! Any help is appreciated!

No, the only thing im talking about it the fron ground effects kit peice, its from a 98-02 Wings West trans am W-type kit. I already have the entire body kit, but i havnt put the front pice on cause im not sure how to. The front lip that im talking about doesnt line up to the bumper, its about 4 inches short on each side. So i was wondering how to go about making the extensions.

I remember when that guy was advertising his decals on ebay. I messaged him asking him about that front lip, and he told me it's just a normal 98-02 Wings West front lip, and he claimed he didn't have to do any modifications to it to make it fit. He said it just stuck right on there with no problems.
Can't say whether or not if it's true, but that's what I remember him telling me.

I wish i was in your position to just make the one pilot peice to be used for repro instead of ever actually seeing the road.
BTW i havnt had time to finish your car, im in med school and its medical terminology week!!! Im sorry!
evil i dont know how good you are at body work, but you could probably get away with researching fuzors products and find one that bonds to urethane (i beleive thats what most of WW stuff is made out of) cut the ends off of the front lip and plastic repair them back together with the extinsions in it. that should give you the extra length you need to make it work. but you gotta be pretty brave to hack a body part up. or maybe its the a modified lt1 camaro front lip they have one that looks just like that.
but after looking at there site and the pic of the red TA its on it looks like they extended the sides

What you say makes sense, but what do you suggest i make the extensions out of? Because if your assuming im using fiberglass, we're back to square one.
yeah on ww's site they have it on that red trans am with flames and looking at it you can tell where they added in, im not 100% possitive it would work but i would look for a junk bumper or even just get some abs plastic that is the right shape and length (if its abs you can use a heat gun to get the shapes you want) those will be your extensions.
then you will have to use a plastic repair to bond them to the urethane and make your shapes. that should hold and be flexible enough that it wont crack over time.
on a separate note they make a lip similar to that for the lt1 camaro do you think it would fit?? better and be less hastle
