Can't get into the SpoilerKing ones, personally. It doesn't go all the way across the rear of the car, so it looks unfinished.

Maybe painted it would be better, but the black urethane look just doesn't do it for me. A lot of other people seem to like them, though.

I love spoilers on cars, but recommend to have it matched to the color of your car!

To me it looks OK, but would be better if it went further side to side. Also, I think it may look better either gloss black or body color. But, if it meets your criteria, then .

No spoiler looks good on a C5. Best car look, without a spoiler. IMO

I tend to disagree, provided the spoiler is factory looking and done correctly. The one I have is a ZR1 style in fiberglass. It was then professionally color matched and bolted on by a local body shop.

I agree. I think it would look better if it was color matched to your car.

it actually goes farther then some of the other spoilers out there which I agree do not go far enough to the sides. This one actually does go about 3 5/8 inches past the hatch lines on both sides. In person it looks better...
