I'll have to assume that Eckler's is out of stock?

Merrick, I've seen Corvettes with this spoiler and, personally, I thought it looked good. I'm not a fan of wings or body kits just so you know. It was a little deeper (wider, I guess you'd say?) than stock and painted to match the car but it was cracking from hitting stuff. Still looked good, though. I'd get one if it wasn't $100 more than the stock one. Sorry, I don't have any pics! It would look cool and work good I think on a track car like yours appears to be. Hope I helped! :seeya

not too crazy about it. I replaced mine with oem and it looks good enough. I would think that the 1 piece would be more prone to crackiing or breaking vs oem :cheers:

I've seen that spoiler on a few cars painted to match the body and thought it looked pretty good, but I don't know how it would look after you hit a few driveway aprons with it. Thats kinda the beauty of the stock piece........I rub it on the ground all the time, but being black you hardly notice it, plus thet're only like $50 to replace :cheers:

:seeya I bought that exact spoiler for my '93 but yet to install it due to lack of time! My spoiler came in "Black." I'm also thinking painting it to match my car... but will be leaving about 3/4" to an inch black so when I do scrape any driveways in the future hopefully won't scrape the paint off. I have the M1 Prowler spoiler on my '90 Vette and like it very much. It's much stronger then the original factory spoiler and always holds it's shape! :yesnod: :cheers:

I have a front spoiler from MAD if your careful it will be just fine I've had it on my car for three years and haven't broke it yet. If your car is low you have to back into parking spots that have those blocks or you'll crush it.
