    That looks great blended and raised. As much as the factory spoiler improves the looks of these cars, I think it's a bit shorter than it should be.

    Just got a new grill for her too. That's hard to come by these days.

    I need the rear spoiler pieces so that they come off the rear straight instead of what I have on the car that is angled up slightly. I need these pieces to be able to add a rear wing to the car for drag racing.

    You should check with Craig Selvey at Craig@MaverickCorral.com here on the site as he dismantles Mavericks & Comets and sells the good parts.

    I recently swapped the trunk lid and spoiler pieces from a grabber and added them to my Comet. Took me a while to find but it sure looks good!

    This is a pic from just after the swap. Since then, I was able to buff the trunk lid out to get a nice shine.

    Huge improvement.
    Are you going 4-wheeling in that car?...

    Har har, I have more projects than time. In the meantime, I'm not complaining, given some of the roads we have around here.

    It was a stock spoiler for a late 80's Firebird. Basically the same that a p.o. put on the Comet I now have.

    the wing spoiler does fit there well , there were a few around I guess - always wonder if it was a local dealer option but I'm in N.E. ...
