Go with the TA. The LS1 TA is one of the best looking cars ever produced and they should try to be duplicated when ever possible. I know i wished i would of bought an LT1 TA just so that way i could of put an LS1 TA front end on it.

How about you just have him buy my formula hatch that is freshly painted and then you can keep yours and he can sell his on ebay for a profit i will sell it to him for $200 shipped and it is already off the car and ready to go. Let me know that is just my suggestion though i have a formula to I switched over to the T-A hatch and it looks good, its just the rear looks a little weird because it doesn't have the GFX like the T-A's do so it looks a little outta place in the rear. But just my opinion.

I found the thread finally. As I said, I personally don't think it looks right.

After seeing those pics I definitely wouldn't put it on there. TA's look great with the TA spoiler but in my opinion the TA spoiler on the Formula doesn't look right. You can tell something's missing. I bet you'd have a lot of people staring at your car thinking "something's different about that TA but I can't figure out what". I look at Formulas and TA's just like I look at Fox Mustang GT's and LX's. They both look cool in their own way even though they look different from each other.

Dude, if you get the T/A spoiler, you MUST get the ground effects and the T/A rear bumper. It'll goofy as crap w/o it.

Best combo: Formula front bumper, T/A GFX/wing/rear bumper.

As a Formula owner, my vote is for the T/A spoiler, if and only if you get the GFX and rear bumper to match.

No offense by all means, But the lines of the car with the wing remind me of a red Sunfire. IMO I would keep the bird bath..... Still a nice clean looking car
