I like the front chin spoiler, I've always had a soft spot for those. I've never been a big fan of side skirts though.

The aero kit items don't do much for me--I like the clean lines of the stock Sol.

Thanks Jimbo, but they can't hurt my feelings.

I can understand how people have doubts about how they look. I know they look a lot better in person, but everybody says that.

I'm also torn between the stock look & the Aero look. That's why we've designed these to mount in the wheel wells & in original fastener locations. Nothing mounts thru the body it'self. The original body surface is protected by double faced tape, so you can remove these panels & replace them as you like.

I plan to remove the panels for driving during the Winter months except when I need to plow the driveway.

Okay, more on the rear fascia please! It's a must have. How is pricing/availability?

Thanks for developing it!

The Dual outlet smooth panel is being introduced at $299.00 & they are being made as we speak.

Can ship by the end of next week.

Yes, we have been discussing making a center outlet version, so your interest in that is very timely.

BTW, the plan for my V-8 conversion package is to have a version of this panel with "V-8 SOLSTICE" embossed in it.

Ditto.
Yeah....what he said.
Doesn't need to be carbon but simply a decent fiberglass. Oh, and without those lame hexagons.

Archie: I think you did a bang-up job, but the total package strikes me as overkill on the Sol. I prefer the cleaner look and I also doubt the durability of anything that low to the ground in Pothole, PA. Remember we are the home of the most famous bucktooth rodent that lives to make holes in the ground. I do think that they will get snapped up like crazy in La-La land and other big cities and I do think they would look better on the Sky. And I know you won't let the naysayers get to you, that's what makes this country great that enterprising persons can add their own individuality to the corporate icon.

What kind of material is it? Fiberglass, plastic, carbon, etc? Also, the check has been written, who/where can I send it. I want to be your first purchase on this one!

How about a single outlet for those of us that don't want modification to a dual outlet? ~~ Trent

They are made of fiberglass with a Gray Primer Jell-coat. The attach without removing the rear Facia using the original 4 clips on each end & the original "Push-buttons" along the bottom edge.

The 4 cylinder guys can get a dummie exhaust tip on the Left side for the appearance of dual exhaust. The picture above is an example of this as that is still a 4 cylinder car.

I think we can ship anywhere in the 48 states for about $20.00 via UPS.

The Dual exhaust back panel is $299.00.

You can send the check to.....

V-8 Archie
11411 Summerwood Dr.
Machesney Park, IL 61115

I also take Credit Cards & you can call me at 1-800-891-3608 to order.

We will have 5 of the exhaust panels ready to ship by the end of next week.

I think that answers all the questions.

Thank You for your interest. We will be making many other Solstice items, so let me know what you might be interested in.

Archie
