i kind of agree - it's a weird looking spoiler...i mean...I guess the Porsche engineers know what they are doing, and it's functional - but it does kind of look like a bizarre protrusion sticking up, rather than a pretty spoiler.

not to take this thread off topic - but is there a way to bypass the spoiler function and just stop it from going up? does it REALLY help at freeway speeds? i mean, if i were to shut it off = would I really notice any difference i handling? i'm no engineer - but it just doens't look like it does a whle lot...does it..or is it more of a gimmick..

to get somewhat back on topic - while I do agree that the spoiler looks a bit weird - i think with the right logo/sticker/emblem on the back of it - done nicely...it adds to the look and would make the car look better.

A great big PORSCHE sticker would look cool. no ne has posted a pic of it, but I found a pic elsewhere like that..it looked nice...the lettering was almost as big as the "MACH SCHNELL" sticker linked above...

how about making the spoiler retractable ONLY if you want it up and then put something on their like "KISS MY A$$" and then when somenoe is tailgating you you could hit that button and stick it up so they coudl read your "message".

a slightly upscale way to flip the bird! okay - i wouldn't really do that...but it would be funny..

what about "NO SUBSTITUTE" on the spoiler?!?!

I think if I were going to put a sticker there - I would do that. get it done in porsche lettering if possible - large stickers to fill up the whole thing.

"NO SUBSTITUTE"

I think most people have seen enough Porsche advertising/commercials to get that one - and it's true!
