    What do you guys think about this. This wing is off a 87 Firebird. And somehow, fits almost perfect. It just needs a" little bit" of work, not much, on the outer edges, so that it follows the body line. And whats even stranger, is that the sun has faded it just enough so that the color even matches my car. I think it looks great!

    Well I guess it may be a sin to scar your Ford by putting a chevy part on it. But hey, it was free, and it fits and looks good. So why not.? Sometimes certain things would look better on another car, everyone's said it at one time or another. So what if its off a chevy, atleast its not off a honda. And the ponies under the hood aren't going anywhere.

    I LIKE it. :cool:

    I don't care that it's a GM part...It looks like it was made for that car and It looks better on the big-bumper cars than the Grabber ducktail...
    :D

    NOW,
    Black-out the taillight panel and REALLY set it off.

    A can of Krylon semi-flat black will do the job just fine until you're ready to paint the whole car...

    I'll use a part off any car as long as I get the look I'm after. You only have to please yourself.

    Looks good the only thing I would do is sand the outer edges to match the body line. Skinny then bigger from the farthest in. I hope that makes sense.
