    I toyed with the idea of this for a while. I was even going to use my set of louvers as a base for one. Never made it any further than the idea phase. I would really love one though.

    Almost done with the first one just have a lot of sanding and filling to do. I'll post pics when I'm done with it.

    Take your time with the mock-ups until it's right. Cardboard works fine. I would think the roof spoiler would not be any more difficult than the rear wing.

    Look up molding clay or wax,I like the idea… Got to keep in mind when opening the hatch it don`t rub on the paint…

    got my hands on a s14 roof spoiler today, laid it across the top of the hatch. it definitely will not work. something from s13 looks like it would be the best bet to modify for z31

    My only issue is, that on the Z31, around the hatch has a dip in the roof line where the S chassis are smooth from roof
    to glass. For the roof spoiler to look good it would have to hide the dip IMO.
