In VA you need one to pass the yearly state inspection. Don't know about other states.

I say leave the spoiler alone. It just looks naked back there without something.

i like the wingless look, i wouldn't worry about a 3rd brakelight, but maybe if you need one for inspection or something you can work out some kind of red led strip in the rear window. i know that sounds ghetto but i mean put some time into it and make it look good and as oem as possible.. either that or just keep an eye out at junkyards for wrecked sc's..

i'd personally just go wingless and not worry about the 3rd brake light.

I swapped my oem spoiler for a CF one without a 3rd brake light, and I didn't install one in my rear deck. I did what Erik said though and am working on fabbing a slim one with an LED strip and maybe a custom housing
