Spoiler - what kind?

After getting the Charlie Chan muffler installed I'm thinkin spoiler is next. I'm lookin for ideas and where to buy a nice spoiler for a 2003 boxster (not S model) that is midnight blue. What kind do you all think looks the best with a boxster? Why do I want one you ask? just because; always wanted one and think its cool

Are you looking for a simple accent piece, or something dramatic ?

Been looking for one as well and the only one that I found so far that still gives a 'classy' clean look is this one. However I still don't know who makes them. Can't wait to find out so if anybody knows these guys please post the www/contact.

madmods: the spoiler you've got a photo of is actually a factory Porsche Aerokit II wing. Per the kit, it is installed with a fiberglass trunklid, and the speed controlled spoiler is removed.
I've got one, and I added the Cayman style wing to the trunklid below the Aerokit wing:


FWIW, the racer in me digs the cup car wing on that Cayman. I would LOVE to see a Cayman prepped to run in the GT class of ALMS or Grand-Am!!

There are many replicas of the aero wing at reasonable prices on ebay.

Here is one example

This site has a few reasonably priced spoilers to look at . They also sell on Ebay . The one pictured is a knock-off of the Techart style .
