I like everything minus the windshield decal, but I read that you have removed it. Any updated pics? Overall it does look awesome! Makes me want to replace my SLP H.O. by a Mecham hood!

Sorry for the delay, some idiot ran a red light and hit me. Waiting on their insurance to decide what they are doing. It got my bumper, and shifted it over about a 1/4". Everything else is good I think.

The 6LE splitter looks good. Seems like everyone that has seen mine gives a positive response.

I've been working hard on getting the car repaired from the accident. Short recap; a woman ran a red light and hit me. I couldn't bare to post pictures of the car wrecked but here are a few fresh out of the paint shop.

Suck about the accident, but good to see a nice F-body staying on the road. Looks good.

I think I have a new favorite Bright Red T/A to drool over now!

I've only seen 1 Mecham in person over the past 15 years and that was a club members car. (His was NBM with Silver Bird) I always loved the aggressiveness of the design with the hood and spoiler and great take on the "Phoenix" for the hood.

The Red/Black combo is fantastic and with those Crays looks mean! Very glad the car was resurrected after the accident, like a true Phoenix.

Hi 98 MECHAM TA .. I took my wing in yesterday, after 5 years! lol

Did you use anything between the Wing and the Hatch? like a foam piece? I notice the original one has one

Thanks, I found a picture of a MECHAM in a magazine when I was 16 and swore I would have one of my own. Now I finally do. It's not a numbered car though, but I still love it! It was all stock when I bout it 81/2 years ago. Patience and TLC is all it takes.

I don't think I did use anything in between mine. I don't remember anything on my factory spoiler neither. It's been on the car a long time. To be honest I think mine has the areas on the hatch raised up that fit into a recessed area at each of the bolting points of the spoiler. I think to stop any water from getting inside the car. If that makes any sense lol. I could be wrong, but I've had my spoiler on mine for at least 8 years now, and have never seen any type of water inside mine. If your car is a newer model it could be a little different, and something they improved on the newer models maybe. I would like to see her once its on though. "*** shots please!" Lol

The accident sucks. I'm not a huge fan of the bird over the WS6 style runners, but it looks like it was really well done here.

Thanks, the bird is from Mecham Desiegn and Performance. It's designed for the extractor hood. I like how it's more modernized.
