It wouldn't look right without the side skirts on it.

While I'm not the "F-Body Police" I don't see anything wrong with doing that

Go for it. I drive a 02 formula firehawk and had a 95 TA before that, both brand new. I prefer the skirts on the TA but hate those big ugly fog lights that have been around for too many years. Although I must admit I like the up-level spoiler better on the TA than the low trunk attached style spoiler on the formula. Also saved a few grand buying the formula over the TA model hawk. Formulas are a couple of hundred pounds lighter too with a nicer set of fog lights tucted over to the side. You can have the best of both birds, show us pics if and when you do it.

He could, but it's better to get opinions first. He could paint his car pink but it would look like crap.

It's good he did ask because putting TA bumpers on a formula would look bad.

The only thing i dont' like about the formula is the foglights. I think the T/A looks soo much better. although the weight is a concern to me. That has me thinking about just dropping the car and not adding side skirts or anything.

I don't think theres nothing wrong with it. I like the trans am bumpers better than the formula, but be sure you put the side ground effects on there too.
