I just want the spoiler. People say you can put the high 5" for a camaro on them. but like the black T/a that did it before it leans back like a ford taurus. I want to look like the heritage, or the angle nascar has their spoilers.

People say they dont like it. but for a change can we hear why? if its not your cup of tea then go drink some damn coffee..

You have about 30 yes's and 30 maybe if the price was right. How many E-1's did you sell? I think you have a winner here, and I know this is the clip I have been wanting. If you can tool-up, you will sell these.

I think it looks bad *** i would be all over it. IMO that is a sick look, molding that hatch is not too bad its really a small piece to paint.

I think it looks fine. It actually cleans up some of the busy appearance of the regular TA's bumper. I guess you'd also have less rock chipping to worry about. However, I think the flared section in front of the wheel is too much.

i don't own a T/A, but i don't think this looks to bad. the front air dam reminds me alot of the IROC T/A's they used run right before the series quit having races.

If I didn't had to change back my hood to a stock non-ram air one, and had the money, cause frankly, a kit like that, with the hatch, the fenders and the front bumper is not gonna be under 2k IMO. There is a market for it, the question is, which customers are you tyring to reach, i.e. what kind of wallet you expect?

I'm not too sure about the bumper, but from the grill openings back the heritage is sick. The hood, the fender moldings, the trim panel with the flare over the rear tires are all sick. I'm really really digging the spoiler the most though. I have been looking and looking and the heritage spoiler is f'in perfect for me. I'm running around in a formula with a WS6 hood on it and its just too plain. That spoiler and the side moldings would wake it up a ton and set it off from everyone else. If I was in a T/A I would have to think twice, but I need a paint job anyway. If you do produce these and the spoiler/side accents and even the hood turn out good, I'm in.

Guys, let's focus on what he is offering, the front clip and rear lip spoiler. KLRWS6 is one of us, not a Wings West or RKSports.

I'm in for both.

Good to know that, thanks for the invoice. I tell you, I'd be down for the bumper anytime, it's just that It wouldn't fit my hood, figure it out while checking the pics. The rear spoiler, well, a T/A spoiler, you can always take it off and shave the holes then put the lip there, but a Formula hatch, you can't do much about it since it's all molded, unless you have something to teach me lol

Like it is on a regular bumper? That'd prolly be a go. But then again, are they going to produce them all the same or with diffent specs, cause that's what makes the price increases. It's to see what they have in mind.
