No. But you can try and mimic the look.

I searched for quite a while before I got my car painted and never found an acceptable version of this lip spoiler. In fact, I am not impressed with the way the spoiler integrates into the quarter, it is kind of stuck there. Click this link to see more> http://s71.photobucket.com/albums/i122/fenx/Heritage/

it would look really slick if someone took the time to "mold" it into the quarter panel rather than just stick it on like that

I am guessing that if they could do better, it would have been done. They had a great team working on the project. The problem is, working a large spoiler into that narrow, tapering quarter, and having enough surface area to stick is a huge challenge.

The tough part is the tail on the 70TA sweeps back and the 4th gen tail lights wrap around and so the spoiler sides need to sweep forward. I really like the wing spoiler anyway.

Interesting. Not my thing but a clean car none the less.

The whole car looks like a John Moss special... raid the GM parts bin and make something cool. The spoiler looks a lot like the 95 - 99 optional Monte Carlo spoiler made to fit a TA. There were two versions, the original was one piece and the later was three.
