I saw one the other day and it struck me how rubbish it looked.
It's 2014, not 1984. The designers spend goodness knows how long perfecting those lines. It's just useless form with no function.

The one I have been looking at is by Tese Designs and is more subtle

that looks ok, if it was fitted and blended to the bootlid it would look better imo

There's a reason that they're called 'spoilers'.

They spoil a perfectly good, classy design IMHO.
