Unless you're regularly going to be running at speeds well into the triple digits (which is a felony in CA), like 120 or more, you don't need a spoiler.

well, I didn't say build a box, but I'll answer ya anyway. he means build a custom speaker box to mount them in, then the box mounts in the trunk.

well, if you measure your trunk, you can go to home depot and get some wood, use your power tools (or get someone to help you) and make one yourself that fits the trunk. cover it however you like. Or you might be able to find someone who builds custom speaker boxes for camaros and get them to do it. or, if you can't do any of that now and you can't wait, look in the pepboys and kragen ads for speaker boxes. but the most economical would be to make it yourself.

ok heres what you do build a box out of mdf cut two circles in it and mount the speakers in ithence speaker box a box for speaklers

but in your case since you seem to know absolutely nothing you can buy box's prebuilt with speakers go to best buy they'll install everything or any other shop

Here's a link to a speakerbox on Ebay. Something like this would work for you.

Id go for a 92 mustang 5.0 and they are usualy 5 speeds.They are pretty fastalready and you can make even faster.But no neon lights that makes you a target on wheels for cops.

I don't know where you get your facts from, but its pretty well documented that even after Ford switched to the SN95 body style, that the 93 Camaro was still the faster, and better handling car. Camaros have always been faster than Mustangs. Put your Mustang love aside and give credit where credit is due. (And this is from someone who likes both Chevys and Fords)

Sounds like to me you're not really interested in performance. I cant stand it when people buy fast cars, or put a lot of money into making their car fast, then weigh it down with a ton of stereo equipment. And you dont need a spoiler (not to mention that theres already one molded into the trunk, stock, anyways).

actualy.. camaro's were slower unless you got to the Z28's or SS's (with the LS1 Motor) vs GT but thats what the cobra was for. and yes the camaro was slightly better with handeling dew to engine placement. mustang engine was set in the car towards the front of the cam more then camaro's giving camaro's better handeling. which can easily be fixed with a K-member

Well of course the base model Camaros are slower than a GT, thats why they're base models.
