2nd gen lovers, which spoiler?

[69496]

Hey guys just wanted to see peoples opnion. Do you guys prefer the smaller 1970 Z28 spoiler or the more common bigger 3 piece spoiler?

[2ndgenhunter]

The low spoiler for me. I can't stand the tall spoiler on early 2nd gens. They look out of place. Just my .02

[twosaturns]

my brother has the 3 piece on his 70, been there, done that. I actually prefer a '70-'73 RS w/ no spoiler and a flat hood.

[Roger M]

Low spoiler, flat hood, RS nose.

[zbugger]

I'm the opposite of many. I prefer the three piece tall spoiler out back, but I also think the car NEEDS the front spoiler to look just right. But that's just my opinion. You'll find a lot of people have pretty different preferences.

D-80 tall 3-pc spoiler...:enguard:

Been staring at mine for almost 30 years now,love the look...absolutely love it!:yum:

Total copy of the Ferrari GTO but hey...to me...it makes the car look much tougher.:machine:

If we're talking about the perfect 2nd Gen to me,I'd have to say '70-'73,Rally Sport,front spoiler,D-80 rear.

You've got good taste Allen...car looks lost w/o front spoiler and strange to me w/low 1-pc rear.

My car may have not come with either but that's not how I like it so I added the front,rear was already a 3-pc,probably added somewhere down the line.All the pics I have of it from as far back as 1975 (before I owned it) it always had D-80.

don't think--just do it.

[DriverzInc]

Small

[6'9"Witha69]

Tall spoiler. My wife is a Second Gen person, her first car was a '71 Z28 RS. Tall spoiler and front spoiler every day of the week, twice on Sunday!

[Chucks73]

Guess which one I like. Low spoiler, flat hood, RS nose and Front spoiler.

[wedgehead]

I like the tall spoiler. 71 car I am picking up now has tall spoiler and I'm not changing it.

[Stargazer]

I went from tall to this;

The way I like it:smoke:

[MoonMan]

No spoiler is my vote...even though that wasn't one of your options :)

They just look so wrong w/o a spoiler...

[MoonMan]

They just look so wrong w/o a spoiler...

Guess you're not going to be a fan of my car then...

[John Wright]

Tall or Short?

An age old question......LOL

[tony byram]

Ive always liked the tall spoiler myself. Kinda like what Musclecar John said kinda reminds me of the Ferrari GTO with the roofline and that spoiler.

Guess you're not going to be a fan of my car then...

Didn't say that...it's your car...build it how you like.:yum:

[TonyHuntimer]

The planets have aligned. For once I agree with Allen and John. :)

3-pc big spoiler for me too. :1st:

[Chevrolaine]

[Turbo Rob]

Short spoiler.

[69496]

X2 they look so much better with either one.

[jeff s]

tall 3 piece

[NOT A TA]

I think it depends on the rest of the car's look. Front spoiler or not, raised hood or not, wheel/tire combo etc. Also will the car be tracked where the additional downforce might be beneficial?

[Taman]

Tall spoiler.

[WhiteG240]

Tall 3 Piece spoiler, with a 2" cowl hood. That's the look I'm going with.

[CRCRFT78]

Either one as long as the front spoiler is also there with it.

[tazzz25906112]

I run short spoilers on both my Camaro's as i personally think it's a cleaner look,,, guess its' all preferences.....

[David Pozzi]

I like the tall spoiler with front spoiler on a camaro that would be Autocrossed or tracked, it looks more like a road racer. The low spoiler looks more civilized, more of a sports look instead of race look. I do like both with a little more preference for the tall one.

I would advise anyone adding a spoiler to a car that is already painted. The 3 piece spoiler will not always line up right without some bodywork. The factory somehow got them to fit right, but I've seen too many added later that had gaps, and were not lined up right. Also the contour of the spoiler may not match the body. The low spoiler is MUCH easier to just bolt on and look right.

Guess which one I like. Low spoiler, flat hood, RS nose and Front spoiler.

same for me, RS front, front spoiler, short one-piece rear spoiler is my favorite.

[class67]

Either one works for me although I lean more towards the tall spoiler, BUT if it is 70-73....you gotta have the RS front end (just had to throw that in).

[406 Q-ship]

The short spoiler it is cleaner look.

[Hellrace]

Taler is better, asked my wife to and she agreed
