I think it's ugly. It takes away from the sleek look of the car.

Stock Spoiler FTW!

Wassup, D-money? I'm not sure exactly what it is that you want an opinion about, but like most SolaraGuys, I have one anyway, and I'll gladly give it to you. Actually, I have more than one.

1. You can't beat FREE SHIPPING anywhere. I've shopped eBay over 50 tiimes in the past year, and the shipping cost have been more than the amount I paid for the products.

2. The two reviewers that are posted seem very pleased. I never review anything dishonestly, so I would tend to consider whatever anyone writes about a product both negatively and positively.

3. J.C. Whitney is a very reputable company. I discovered them in one of their magazines back in 1980 and I used to order from them all the time. Even then, they had been around for 50 years or so. You could tell by the pictures of the cars in their ads and some of the wierd things they were selling. That was before I discovered the Internet, actually long before the Internet was available.

4. Finally, the part that says they ship in 2 - 3 weeks is a plus. They always gave honest shipping expectations and usually shipped earlier than stated. That is far better than a lot of companies and people I've dealt with on the Internet.

Those are my opinions. I hope they help. Jimmm

P.S. I don't really care for spoilers. They are so common.

I want your gen2 spoiler jimmm ;)

I agree with NICK, that spoiler look like CAMRY 92-96, i dont take even FREE, i rather buy Universal stylist spoiler.

Gen2 Solara's spoiler looks cool on gen1.5 Solara, just need a little mod.

I GUESS I MISUNDERSTOOD THE QUESTION :o I THOUGHT HE WAS ASKING ABOUT THE COMPANY AND THE PRICE, ETC., ETC,

Actually, I think spoilers are good on some cars and bad on others. Sometimes they help complete the overall design of the car, and sometiimes they just bring attention to themselves. I've seen cars where I tried to imagine what the car would look like without the spoiler and I've decided that it would not be such a cool car without it. Then I've seen cars where the spoiler just doesn't belong. That's how I feel about my Gen 2 SLE V6. It actually has a built in spoiler and that's enough for me.

THIS IS SO FUNNY THAT IT NEEDS TO BE SEEN AGAIN. This also reminds me of a dog I had for 16 years. His name was BROADWAY. This is probably how he looked when he encountered a skunk for the first time, or maybe it was how I looked when he came home.
