Archie, I would be most interested in the dual rear fascia. Like the smooth finish much better than the stock honeycomb. Want to do a dual exhaust kit, but since I have to change the rear fascia I would like to go smooth. Prices, availability on this item? The aero kit items don't do much for me--I like the clean lines of the stock Sol.
It's a love or hate thing. I don't see a need for everyone to tell Archie they don't like it. I think he would appreciate hearing from those who would be interested in buying one for their car. If no one expresses interest, then that speaks for itself but IMHO it doesn't help him to let him know you aren't interested.
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!

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.

No, I do not work for GM or any subsidiary or supplier.
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.

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!

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.....

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.
I can understand how people have doubts about how they look. I know they look a lot better in person, but everybody says that.
Would that be a reason to come to the National Meet in July?
