when Porsche went to the cayman they removed the dam andadded the spoiler lip. the 987 boxster keeps a spoiler similar to the 986. uncertain if the fastback has different airflow characteristics than the roadster, or if the fastback had different aesthetic requirements than the roadster. probably a bit of both.

you can buy the ebay product to convert the 986 to cayman style, or actually use a cayman rear spoiler (required modification of the rear bumper cover as per cheetah). fluid987 make some really nice exaggerated cayman style spoilers, but none that work for the 986:



otherwise, if you want to retain the 986 style spoiler but add a lip to the top of it, there was a product out (by I think a Swedish company) that did something like that but can't find a pic anywhere anymore so most likely no longer available.
