    Because I was just thinking, I HAVE a four door. I love it. I've lost the 2 door fever. But I love the look of grabber stuff. Can anyone show me what it would look like? When i was thinking I realized that if I bought a 2 door to work on, I'd put all my money into it and let the 4 door got to pot in the meantime and I love that car. Besides, I can get a 2 door when I make more money and have my inevitable midlife crisis! :ratrod:But back to the point. I hope someone has at least one example picture. i believe I'm going through with it no matter what. i think I'll even go so far as to put a white "Stallion" line over my dark blue paint and maybe go for a sprint style interior. Talk about maverick! :clap:And I'm willing to be tried for heresy for my thoughts. :rofl:

    they do not make arear grabber spoiler to fit a 4 door. JoeXr was going to be working on one but he has been a little busy. it is a good idea but the only "grabber" item would be the hood. everything else would need to be custom made.
    I too love the 4 door (as everyone knows) but it probably would look best to put your own personal spin on what it would look like.

    Awww! Followed the link. If I'd have seen that a year ago, I'd almost be done. (As if that's Possible)

    Hmm... I have joes #. I should talk to him about it one day. Thank you for that information. That would have been a stumbling block down the road, as well as hurting me right in the wallet.

    there never was a 4 door grabber spoiler made. mean maverick was thinking about a big bumper grabber spoiler they used to make

    OE grabber spoilers dont work on big bumper 2dr, the 1/4 panel extensions are diffrent
