Does anyone currently make a light weight Trans Am wing?

Nope. That's why many of us either run a formula/firebird hatch or run the T/A hatch and remove the up-level spoiler.

Yep...as awful as it looks without the wing it shed a TON of weight.

However the weight is considered "good" weight since it is over the rear tires. Unless you're looking for every last little bit I wouldn't bother with removing it. Finding a Formy/V6 hatch is your best bet.

Ed Quay makes an aluminum wing with strut kit. The wing bolts to the hatch and will allow you to open and close hatch easily. If you like that look (I do) it will save you nearly 30lbs. Get some speedglass out back and drop close to another 20lbs
