I am having a huge problem with fitting a bike rack on an SL because of the solar panel spoiler. The top straps will not fit there in the bike racks others have used. Suggestions? thank you!
 
I have a SL as well here is the rack I went with what is cool is you can use it for more than bikes

One alternative to installing a rack, is to buy a folding bike and then just put it in the back of the car.

I have used a Montague folding bike for years and it fits into the Leaf easily.

I haven't tried it myself, but a fellow Leaf owner/avid cyclist says his bike fits in the Leaf fine with the rear seat folded forward.
 
I ride a cyclocross and mountain bikes. Both fit in the back with no problem. I just put a cover down to keep the car from getting dirty. I also remove the front wheel.
