Default spoiler

I looking at pictures I see some cars with a spoiler across the rear of the car, are these a factory option or aftermarket?

If memory serves me correctly this is the only C4 factory spoiler. It came with the GTO (?) option around 1988.


I found an old post on this subject. Sure to stir things up again!

No C4 rolled off the assembly line with a spoiler.
So, not "factory".

The GTO body kit was a GM dealer sold/and/or installed unit. Not a factory installed option.
