Leno spoiler but extend it over the rear quarter panels, like the stock vert spoiler.

right on man. Pretty much this pic sums it up

i don't think for $399 a good quality highwing is viable, especially considering filling in the holes from a factory spoiler it doesnt cover up.

my vote is still for the improved blade one that extends over the trunk lid, like the convertible, and has nice smooth lines that help the profile of the car instead of hurting them. I do like how the blade from GM curves around the rear of the car, like if you view it from the side it has a convex shape

My vote is for a 1st gen style spoiler kinda like Unrestricted Motorsports offers.

It looks like I'm in the minority here, but I definitely don't care for the GM Blade spoiler. The side pieces just don't look right to me.

Personally i don't like mixing new Camaros with old Camaros when it comes to design. A 69 Camaro is a 69 Camaro. If you want a 2011 Camaro looking like a 69 Camaro, then go buy a 69 Camaro and mod it up.
Putting spoilers that look like the 69 Camaro on your 2010 defeats the purpose of owning a 2010 Camaro.
I say - like many said - go with something that works with the lines of the current generation.

I like the high spoilers that resembles a NASCAR car, but I would rather have something more low profile that actually is FUNCTIONAL, not for looks only.

I'm opposed to putting stuff on my car that is not functional... and I rly doubt most of these aftermarket ones are as functional as the factory ones.

I'd say a classy wing like in TF3, or the leno style.

Why do something that 3 or 4 other vendors are doing? The dovetail style spoiler is overdone, as is. No point in doing that yet, AGAIN. My suggestion would be to do both a shorter TF3 style spoiler (I think it's a little too tall) and to do a Firebreather style spoiler. You can probably do a painted TF3 style spoiler at the price point you're wanting but, the Firebreather would obviously have to be more. There is a market for a painted Firebreather that uses the factory holes. The company that designed it had an attractive design but, it can definitely be improved upon by perhaps reducing the size a little and using the factory holes instead of having to shoulder the extra expense of filling in the old holes/painting them or getting a new deck lid without a spoiler. I think most people would be onboard with a Firebreather style spoiler around the $550-$650 price if it was painted and fit the factory holes. You would be the only vendor selling these and would definitely make a splash in the spoiler arena. I would think, from there, you could come up with some originals and gain market share.

Agree on the firebreather spoiler idea.

Screw function. Give us twin vertical wings like on an F18 Hornet.

o.O

The request is a bit weird, but the post is made doubly weird in the fact that you asked for the twin vertical stabilisers similar to a F-18's and then post a picture of the X-35 JSF prototype.
