lowrider, are there after market spoilers like that white sedan available for the coupe? How much would that be? I like that much better than either the chrome spoiler or the factory spoiler.

He painted it white himself i believe.
There are aftermarket solutions for the 2nd gen sedan that cover the chrome. Im sure there will be the same for the coupe.. and some other creative ideas

Thanks for all the thoughts! I agree and also think that the car somehow looks better either with both spoiler and splash guards, or without both of them. I usually don't like the look of tacked-on spoilers, many of them seem to remind me of ricers with their ridiculous ironing-board sized tables on the back. But, I decided to go with both the spoiler and splash guards, mostly to cover up the chrome lip. Somehow, to me it looked like the chrome lip de-emphasized the lines of the rear, it made it look too soft (a friend of mine said the car looked like a weeble without the spoiler). So, I'm going with both spoiler and splash guards (in red).

I still would prefer the plain, clean look of a solid, all-body-color trunk lid without either spoiler or chrome goiter... If it ever happens in the future, maybe it will be possible to buy a trunk lid.

Yep, this guy sanded down the chrome himself, and had it painted. IMO, it is a wonderful solution for those of use who like neither the chrome piece or the spoiler.

I want to do the same, except with the front grille since I already have the spoiler already.
