Great, deal I assume this is not made aftermarket?
this style fits an ss. Or non ss correct?
I live up in snow country which one does a better job of keeping the back window clean
I am assuming the higher up hoop style may hurt gas mileage a tiny bit.
I know on the old 78-81 Camaros. If you took off the spoilers in the back you would pick up about 3 miles an hour in the quarter mile on about a 10 second car.
Sorry did not mean to go off subject
Great buy on the spoiler I will give you $80.00 lol

The T handle is from the inside of a garage door. It's the unlocking handle. I painted it for a better look.

I found mine at Car-Part.com. Several spoilers listed, you just need to call to find out what style they have.

There is no spoiler made for the HHR that will help keep the rear any cleaner. A "wind blade" to force wind down the rear of the car is needed for that, which is not produced for the HHR.

Thanks, I'll check with them. It's true either spoiler serve no function other than appearance. Just like most of our HHR mods..we dont need it, we just want it!
