Custom firebird fiberglass wing and hatch deck lid with 3rd brake light

I took my deck lid off with my handmade fiberglass wing. I replaced everything a camaro lid and spoiler.

The wing is a copy of the formula wrap around spoiler. I used my stock one which was beat up and laid fiberglass over it. Then joined the 2 halfs together. But I wanted to incorporate a 3rd brake light bc I didnt like how the stock one looked. So I recessed a knotch in the wing and allowed a small LED strip of lights to be in the wing. This was wired into the stock lids 3rd brake light so it would work like stock. The wing snaps down on the stock wrap around clips on the hatch. The fiberglass wing has been on the car for years now and has held up fine. The fiberglass is alittle wavy but with alittle love and care could be a nice cheap spoiler. The spoiler is also very light since its all fiberglass but very strong.

The lid is drilled for the wing (just two holes on the very outside. The decklid is painted black with 2 coats clear. 3rd brake light switch is still mounted to the decklid.

Asking 150$ for the pair. And dont want to ship.

this is the wing on my car about 2 yrs ago. Its pretty neat how sleek the wing looks with no center section in the middle and the Light tucked into the wing.

I hope you dont have to throw it away, but how does the camaro spoiler look? I've been wondering how they fit the car.

Re: Custom firebird fiberglass wing and hatch deck lid with 3rd brake light

Well it seems that no one wants it so ill have to be junking it soon. The camaro wing I think looks better on a base model firebird/formula. I can only speak for my own tastes but My rear hatch still has the clips for the wrap around wing. If I find a donor hatch without the wrap around wing clips ill throw that on. Otherwise I think it looks great. No one says much about the wing bc it looks at home on it but the engine gets alot of attention.
