Default is the Wings West front lip the same on a trans am and camaro?

they look very alike. i cant tell by the pictures.

the reason i want to know is because i have a wings west camaro front lip.. i doesnt fit on my firebird front bumper, i was thinking it might fit on a trans am front bumper. then i'd just buy a t/a front bumper instead of a wings west trans am front lip

If the camaro lip wont fit on the firebird bumper it won't fit the TA bumper. They are nearly identical on the undersides, save the lightly more pronounced sides to match with the stock skirts.

And if anyone wants to give him grief instead of answering the question, you can enjoy an infraction for harassing him. It's a legit question, get over it.

So what is the question now? You said the camaro one doesnt fit and you need the one for the Trans Am BUT..... the front is different and the Wings West T/A front lip will not fit so you need to buy the one for the Firebird/Formula. I used to have one and know.

I have always thought the basic Firebird WW lip was the same for both the 98+ Camaro & Firebird, but the 97's are probably a bit different though. Some have put the Firebird lip onto a TA and it's worked. I can't picture a WW front piece for a 97 Camaro would be the same as the 98+ TA front piece. It seems to be a too much of a different front end design.

Telling by those 2 pics they do appear to be a tad different.
