From the photo it looks like it might be for a race application .... maybe custom?? Mid America (MAM), East & West Coast Corvette also have Wings but I'm sure U've already looked there.... and do want you want and give thanx we're all not the same... it'd be extremely boring if we were.

What a waste of space. Seems like there should be a sticky where people could post their opinions about spoilers once and for all, so the rest of us can move on to how we would like to mod our cars. Good grief.

they answered the question and this is what they said

"Actually that spoiler was a prototype but never got produced so there are only a few out there. That spoiler has been very popular but it is unknown why it was never made for the public."

dang I really wanted one.

Yes it was a nice looking piece, it's a shame they never made it. Maybe you could get mould and have someone like ACP produce it.

Looks like a Tiger Shark rear bumper cover. Saw one at MTI last week when my 97 got a heart transplant. Ive seen them on ebay. Its a whole bumper cover with a slight elevation at the top. Very subtle. Looked nice.

TigerShark rear fascia does not look anything like this one. It's a custom.

I have a custom one on mine from ACP which I really like, here's a picture. What's nice about the one I got from ACP is I don't have to change my exhaust, license plate or rear lights.
