Do you have any pics of what you are referring to? 

Are you talking about the new Challenger '70 style go wing or do they have a new '71 style "gull wing" go wing or are you talking about a T/A style spoiler?  :clueless:

I think he is wondering if a 2010 R/T rear spoiler would fit on a 70's Challenger since they are way cheaper then a T/A spoiler.

I have seen the new Challenger Taillights and grille installed in a 70 Challenger, so I believe the new Challenger rear spoiler will fit. The new Challenger is a 1/2 inch narrower than the 70-74 Challengers. Also there are other sources that are cheaper than $350 for the T/A spoiler.

Now that you said that there was one at the Mopar Nat's in 08 that had the front and rear of a new one graphed onto a 70's Challenger. It looked great also.

I don't know anything about that particular part, but overall there's a lot of variation in quality for "reproduction" Challenger spoilers.

Not sure where your looking but the OE TA style is 189.00 the new style is 240.00. thing I would be concerned about is the rib in the center of the deck with placement of the newer style on the old deck lid.
