    I like it! Do you know what that spoiler is from? With all due respect to Grabbers, it looks to me like it is its own beast and doesnt care what any grabber is thinking.

    Is that a Maverick or a Comet with Maverick grill, hood and front bumper? It has Comet tail lights.

    Thx. I bought it several years ago from a guy who had it on a Maverick, and I thought it it fit 100% better than the Mustang spoiler. I think it is from a 80's firebird/camaro. Not sure.

    Here is the spoiler on ebay https://www.ebay.com/itm/1982-92-Firebird-Trans-Am-Formula-Rear-Hatch-Deck-Spoiler-Air-Dam-Foil-GM/323959035753?fits=Year:1989|Model:Firebird&hash=item4b6d769769:g:qcIAAOSwO0VdsyQw

    It has a bit of an arch. I just cut a little of the arch on my table saw and fiberglassed it back into shape.

    Like this spoiler for the Maverick. This one from a 1988 Trans am, matches the curve on the Maverick sides like it was stock.

    Very cool looking car. I'm normally not a side pipes kinda person but those do look at home on that car.

    Love those side pipes also. Heres a picture from 1979 of my 74 Grabber. Just made me cringe everytime I heard them scrap. mav74.jpeg

    A Comet GT wannabe would make more sense. And '75 Grabbers didn't have that hood.
    I like the rear spoiler. I'd ditch the sidepipes.

    Looks good. Good job with the bumpers. This is one I built for my son. I didn't like the Grabber hood that much but like the shakers. 286006-R1-20-0.jpg Mav 2.JPG Mav 2.JPG
