ED Quay makes one that bolts onto the Firebird/Formula hatches. With a little modification to the spill plates, it would probably work on a Trans Am hatch (with or without up-level spoiler)

Ed Quay makes that same wing for the Trans Am with the stock wing removed so it's not stacked on there. Me and my buddy are ordering one, we were waiting for a 3rd to get good pricing-if you decide to get it pm me, it was like $310 shipped with the strut kit.

the trans am prostock wing that overbeek makes is harder and harder to come by. I have one on the way, but I heard last week that he's not taking any more orders until at least march. Once ordered, expect 10-12 weeks

So basically for anyone looking to race competitivly this season, they are screwed.

I do like the one that works off the stock hatch, even the camaro one looks pimp too.

None taken. If we all liked the same thing life would be too boring.

I knew I should have waited! I don't recall seeing one when I ordered mine. Heck, that would have been worth sourcing a Trans Am hatch. With the firebird/formula hatch, I was kind of limited as to what I could do with it (since you can't remove the spoiler).

Yeah I spoke to the guy over there and he told me about it, funny no pics on the website but he said when the 4th gens came out that's what they were making for Pro Stock.
They don't sell alot of them because of the bodywork to the hatch that has to be done to smooth it out I guess.

It's cool because it mounts to the top of the hatch and that allows you disconnect the support and have full access to the trunk.
