I agree. something to the extent of the orginal look!!!

If they only have to make one mold, then it should be cheaper. I'd be all for that, but only if it's a lip spoiler type and looks very close to the OEM type.

Where are our photoshop experts? Maybe they could take a pre-98 trunklid picture, and chop the spoiler into something a little smaller/flatter to allow them to mold it into the trunk? Maybe like that BMW lip spoiler that rolls off the back of the trunk? I think that'd look pretty good.

I don't think that the problem is the height of it. I'm sure it's more of the abrupt angle where it meets the top of the trunk. This however, in my opinion, could easily be built up slightly with fiberglass before molding.

I am in favor of a molded in lip spoiler. Can we vote on what we would prefer?
