What can I do for the rear of a GXE?

Looking at the model from the front - it loks nice, besides that the lights are kind of 2 dimensional, but the rear looks very awkard, like it's missing something. Could I find a not overy strange spoiler(something stock-like of fancier, but not taller), or is there something else I could do the rear to "spice it up" a bit?

Personally I really like the look of the rear end..especially at night. The later models have a slightly diferent brake light that to me makes a world of a difference. It kind of bends down at the ends. I realize this helps you in no way but maybe you'll realize its really not as bad as you think.

paint it pink? that should make it look "un-awkward".

Maybe... I'll go check, or have my sister drive it, and I'll follow to see if I perceive it differently.... But just looking at the top of the back in plain day light, it seems kind of blocky... and the silver trig/plastic peice on mine in pulling up on the side, not enough to really realize it, but it doesn't feel like "just a trunk".... maybe I'm a little self consious...

pink? hey thats a great...no I can't even... what are you thinking! :P
I don't know.... what I think is ideal in a car is a smooth, flowing body, but with tight curves, rather than becomming a sphere...

i agree. i think the back looks a lot better with a stock spoiler. check on ebay you might see one there or maybe at a junkyard.
