Ventross has an entire carbon fiber rear trunk, Wald has a carbon fiber spoiler and Cathafer changed her's to a different one a while back. Did a search and found you a link to a few pics and information about hers.

As far as install, I'm not sure if the stock one is stuck on with tape or screwed in.

I believe I remember Cathy saying she had to have holes filled in and the lid repainted when she changed out spoilers...I could be wrong though.

No you're right, that's what she said:

Thanks for the info Robbys3m3 and Lou! I wasn't sure if it was stuck on or drilled on (couldn't remember). That info is good to know
