Very interested as well, I've been looking to get one for my 94 Z28 for a moment. I think it would look awesome matching my 3" SS hood from VFN the one in my avatar, all though I don't want to have a shitty fitment issue like I here are out there. Ebay dealers from everything I've read. I would also like to see pics of one on a car to get a feel for the higher lip and shaved light! So will the 98-02 SS poilers even fit right on first gen LT1's????

I bought it from Driven by style

Wonder if they get the throw aways? The duraflex is supposed to have no third brake light provision, mine did.

Something's up. Either they sell a CRAP LOAD of products for Extreme Dimensions (which they very well might) and get a helluva discount (their price is LITERALLY LESS than my cost) or they are getting discounted "problem" pieces.

Please post pics because if it is normal product and it is crap I will drop the product line until I clear it up with the company...

Also, if the company you bought from doesn't help you out let me know and I'll see what I can do, everyone I met at Extreme Dimensions was REALLY nice. I don't even know for sure this came from them though...

Yeah let's see them pics if you can get a hold of them. Also you say it came with the 3rd brake light? I see that the picture shows no 3rd brake light all though they don't even mention it in the add! How did it all match up! what did it cost to get painted?

it did not come with a third brake light, it came with the provision for it (spoiler recessed for light).

I will try to get pics up asap!

Any back shots? Do you have any type of padding (my other brand SS spoiler came with some foam I had to leave out to sit right) between spoiler and trunk or does it sit that high all on its own?

That's really bad...

Damn that is terrible looking, which place is this not to buy from again? That sits all fucked up. The center post don't even come close to touching and the top pieces that meet with the hatch are way high....I take it that it's just sitting there but I can't for see bolting it down fixing that much of gaps and being flush....Damn now I'm even discouraged to think about getting one of these period! I want one to fit like a glove, like it was meant to be there, lol! Any one else have some pics of a good company with a proper fitting SS spoiler's?????

Your car is the newer model 98-02, what year is the camaro that is red with the jacked up spoiler....Maybe there is a difference in the 2 models, Not sure. You can install a spoiler off a newer model to 93-97 model if not then maybe he got the wrong one. Not to familiar with spoiler's but I do now that looks like ****.

1993-2002 are the same on the hatch. My reference (to a fitting spoiler) was not the spoiler he's talking about. It is one I bought YEARS ago from a company on ebay that everyone on here has had great experiences with so I was just passing that info along since someone asked about where to get a good one from...

I'm confused here, above you state that all the reject spoiler's go to ebay dealers but yet you say you bought yours there and it's fine! So what do you recommend then and who from? I want one and I want it to be right just like everyone else forking money over. I've always heard different things with the spoiler fitting different models but you do say that they all are interchangeable then. Hell I may look for one that is a true OEM SS spoiler, then maybe there will be do defects or fitment issues. Not sure if I can find one locally or not but I may go this route.

Sorry Phoenix that you got screwed over with that POS spoiler, it sucks to wait to receive and then have a disappointment with poor *** workmanship and customer service from garbage *** company's that sell knock offs that are a waste of time.
