Spoiler looks really good, maybe you might think about incorperating the third brake light in it.
Just a thought

It is a injected plastic. It is formable to bend to follow the curve of the trunk. The 3rd brake light makes it the spoiler to tall. I clayed one up. Just didn't look right. I made a few different styles. This was the best that didn't take away from the original Italian styling.

I know I have all ready mentioned my Blazer third brake light, but the LED light bar is only about a half inch tall x may be three quarters of an inch deep x twelve inchs long. thats the lights themselves, no housing

Here is a source for all kinds of LED lights, if not for some of your current projects, perhaps some thing down the road.
