yes it will work on a normal Firebird spoiler, I'm actually putting a bird on my Firebird one right now and getting ready to paint it. Check your PM box redfbird!

I done this a long time ago with black paint. I think it was August of 2005 when I done it. Mine lights up 'WS6' I love the one of the Bird, that is great.

that seems a little tedious. If you spray your coats of black very lightly the light will shine through the black just not as bright as the open/exposed area of the lens. Plus paint is a lot easier to work with than VHT nightshades. You can also paint the light the same color as your car so it blends in, I just used black because it matches the color scheme of my car.
here u go

i dont think any other color would look good on mine except white. wont it look bad if its not a perfect match? id want LT4 on the back of mine. or a clear lense to go with my clear corners.
