I have an authentic molded Wald spoiler... in MRM. 
Don't think I've seen too many of those floating around the forum.
I'll post pictures... eventually.
Edit: Also, my spoiler was tweaked so I didn't have to raise up the panels... and I don't have that nasty overhang/cliff/whatever you want to call it at the bottom.

I did think about shaving the spoiler before raising the quarters but I didnt want to take away from the shape of the spoiler and as you can see the difference below, the body line of the quarter doesn't match up as well when the quarters are not raised, plus there seems to be that slight drop still between the spoiler and the quarter. But it is a good option for someone who doesn't want to put out the extra $$$ to raise the quarters. Mariano pm'd me what he paid and it was a arm and a ********.

Yeah, i do see that. Do you think it's possible to shave or sand it down to meet the lines? My only concern about raising the quarters is when i go to sell the car. However, i do think it looks the best with it raised and molded. I'm having a similar issue with my other car now, it's built custom to my liking so there is a limited market, and i having a really tough time selling it. If i can get away with shaving the corners and meeting the lines, i should be pretty happy!
