Unhappy 2007 Solara spoiler options

Hi, All,

I bought a 2007 Solara SE about a month ago, and, for some reason, I've started having issues with its appearance from the rear and side-rear angles. At first, I thought this was just about my adjustment to having a coupe after falling in love with driving my Mazda Millenia for the past 6 1/2 years. Now, I'm thinking that I don't like something about the standard spoiler...seems it cuts the back of the car short and makes it look like a hatchback from certain angles (and I'm not a fan of hatchbacks). I've been trying to find different options for giving the trunk some sort of lift so that it doesn't appear to slope downwards as much. I've found a wing-type spoiler, but I have only been able to find a pic from the back (http://www.customautotrim.com/spoile...solara/wg1725/) so I'm unsure whether I would like it from the side angle.

I also considered just removing the spoiler all together. Most recently, I've started looking at the spoiler from the Sport model because it's bigger. If anyone has any pics to share or any thoughts on my dilemma, I would greatly appreciate your response because I REALLY want to love this car the way I loved my Mazda! Thanks!

Thanks, jkg. I saw some other options I would consider...I just wish I could see some pics of Solaras with different spoilers on them so I'd have some idea how it might look. I don't want to buy one and install it only to find that I don't like it!
