Default Trans Am wing ??

Ok this is going to seem awkward to some of you but here goes:

1- Has anyone tried to fit a Trans Am wing on the rear deck of a C5?
2- Any pics?
3- Where can I buy a Trans Am wing? besides dealerships

in person it does not look too bad, I personally believe the only modern vette that needs a wing is the C5R/C6R models.

When I first tried to picture it I was thinking

But then I saw the picture and it's really not THAT bad. I'm not a fan of spoilers on Vette's but I have to say that's one of the less ugly ones I've seen done.

Awsome, better than I thought it would look. There was a company that used to make one but they discontinued it. I think it was ACTI (or something like that)

Where could I buy one of those??

I saw one at a local car show last week. The rest of the car was very modified, but the wing actually looked pretty nice.

Theres a navy blue vette around here with the TA spoiler on it. Definently does not look good from the back. Just doesn't flow right with the rest of the car, too sharp.
