car is clean. I would say negative on the scion roof conversion.

Everything is tastefully done.

You could always do the vinyl on the rook first to see if you like it.

Great looking car.

I'd prefer spoiler-less. But car overall looks really clean. especially for being an 03'

Yeah, they are listed all over the place. Not only did it fit perfectly, it's also made of plastic, not fiberglass or anything like that. It's flawless. It was installed for me but the guy who did it said it was perfect.

Yes, but it's not the spoilers fault...it's the fact that the 03 oem spoiler is much larger than the 06 spoiler, thus requiring the trunk to be repainted due to the glue marks left by the removal of the 03 spoiler. If my trunk was wingless, it would have been a breeze.

This was the rear end of my Grand Prix...it should give you an idea of what it'll look like.
