Do you guys think the Solara looks better with:

1) Kaminari kit and rear stock spoiler

or

2) Kaminari Kit and no rear stock spoiler

Woah! Who's car is that? Those dual TRD mufflers are hot!



But to answer the original question, I think they both look good when done right. But I think if you want to go no wing, you need to be SLAMMED on coilovers to pull if off right. :D

With wing for sure.....Without the wing leaves it looking as if there's something missing.

I like both options. If you're car is already wingless, I say keep it that way.

Shaving the emblems is a matter of personal preference IMO. I like having mine.

I like the rear spoiler.
Wit out the spoiler the rear end seems too empty.

my car already has a spoiler. I may take it off. I already took off the emblems

I somehow have to wire in the 3rd brake light into the rear window after I remove the spoiler. Then patching up the holes will be another project.
This might not be worth even bothering with.

One side of me says keep it but the other says remove it.

Spoiler is better....especially if you already have it. Emblem are a matter of choice. I took all mine off except the "solara" one.
