Default Trans Am spoiler on a Camaro

Just curious if anyone has seen this. I know a lot of work would be done but i think it has potential to look good. If any of you Photoshop guys could do this i would be very grateful.

Outside of wheels and few interior pieces, I think any cross breeding of the TA/FB and Camaro just doesnt work.

Well.. in its defense.. that camaro still has the lip spoiler on it.. which definately affects how the TA spoiler would look on it.. but I agree.. if you want the WS6 hood and WS6 spoiler.. get a WS6.

Yah I gave the licence plate a say in it as well.

I chopped this off a standard SS rear end pic I googled. No lip spoiler. Infact the tops of the fenders had to be flattened a bit to meet the lines of the trunk lid. To do this in real life would be some serious body work and would be a failure in the end product.

I just think the stock 98-02 SS spoiler looks so good, and goes so well with the body, myself as a designer cannot think of a way to better it. GM just really nailed that one. Ditto applies to the TA wing on the Firebirds.
