Why can't GM make the High wing spoiler?

Any one know why GM can't seem to get the High wing spoiler produced? I've been looking forwards to getting it on my car once i get it but yet they keep "pushing it back" and cancelling it?

If any one knows what's up, or knows how to find out spread the word! lol

probably because they have done research and have found out that the GENERAL PUBLIC, not everyone but in general, don't find it something pleasing to the eye....and might not sell very well......thus, they aren't going to make it......bottom line; ITS ALL ABOUT MONEY.

I for one have never thought Added on wings belong on any Camaro.. Ever since Chevy put the Wing on the third Gen Camaro Z28 I have hated them,, except for the nicely intergrated one on the 4th gen (I never liked the tacked on look of the RS spoiler on the 4th gens either)they all look like crap to me.. I have seen people put wings even on the 4th gen.. and it looks terrible..

Umm yeah, just always thought spoilers/wings were for cars that sound like cracked out lawnmowers But I do hear thay are good for an extra 25 MPH in the quarter if you put them on a Honda Civic, Dodge Neon, or a Hyundai Genesis

Shoot, I knew someone who swore up and down that all the redline stickers he had plastered all over his car made it more aerodynamic!

Just having a litle fun... I couldn't resist...

probably true, sort of ...I would suspect it's not actually built by GM and it's a "supplier problem" like w/ the heritage grill. I'm sure there will be (if not already) aftermarket options for those who really want to wing it.

Not sure if this is what you are referring to, but GM has this one available.

cooool Scotty's got all the info


on a side note, i tire of the high-wing bashing... i hope the aftermarket comes through, i've got nothing against it.



this is the closest i've seen so far, and it's not even close. it doesn't quite do it for me.
