Default Trans Am Rear Hatch

Where can I get one of these lol! I don't know of any company that makes them or anything similar.. I've seen things like the E-1 wing which I think goes on top of the hatch anyway so I still need the hatch itself, and another wing from firebirdevolution.net or something but when I went to go there, it I guess does not exist anymore, (the website I mean) I just want something other than the stock before 98 model firebird spoiler/hatch.. I don't like the way it collects water and such and I'd rather have the highrise IMO it looks better. I even tried asking some person I've never met before, seen a transam in their driveway for 5 years just going to waste NEVER MOVED so I asked if I could buy the rear hatch, she said uh I don't think my husband is ready to let it go lmao...5 YEARS... come on now.. gimme it! so where can I get a trans am hatch!!?

if you want just a hatch, keep looking at the classifieds for a TA part out.

yeah... shipping is the killer!
f parts is in P.A. but there are a couple of T/A hatches on ebay right now from different sellers at different locations all around $280 complete, maybe you will get lucky and find one within driving distance?

Yeah, I've bought things from fparts before, when I was fixing up my firebird when I first got it, little things like power window switches and stuff... he wants about 180 shipping east of the Mississippi river, which isn't bad but I would rather not pay almost 200! just to ship something, that sucks! I'll just keep looking around, and I've been searching in threads for somewhere closer or something if anyone happens to find something send me a PM please or post up here. thanks
