    Can't imagine why you would want either

    I'd definitely go the BBS (look a like?) rims first!

    Proof spoiler only seems to be for GenII. Lots of good stuff on US eBay that will ship here

    Lip might be hard to get in that brand. From Germany by the look of it and they don't ship here

    S/Crow - I agree - it's called a roof-spoiler because it spoils the roof-line.

    The 6 has a lovely roof-line finished off by the semi-Kamm tail and vestigial boot spoiler. Perfect. Why mess with it? Each to his own, I guess.

    It might keep the sun off your back parcel-shelf if the sun was dead ahead and no higher than about 20 degrees above the horizon, but that's about all it would be good for.

    You could try something like I have stuck on my spoiler, it is made from a soft flexible plastic (very similar to the door strips), and is held in place with some 3M double sided tape. It was around $60 painted and delivered to my door.

    I'm not saying roof spoliers are no good. I'm maintaining only that - in my opinion - the smooth clean lines of the MPS6 are not enhanced by them.

    I see far too many people bolting everything possible onto their cars just because it is available and is seen as a "performance" add-on. Some lack any true functional value and may even create drag or some other disadvantage. The result in some cases is a design hotch-potch that folks need to be wary of. But as noted before, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

    While I would not use one on my MPS6, I would opt for one on my Landcruiser to fill the vacuum at the rear that sucks dust, road film, grime and mud onto the rear window. i.e. a functional use.

    his car, let him do what he wants. plus the picture below shows it can work

    I've added a lip to the mps 3 spoiler and I think it makes the car look totally different and unique

    My stupid phone/tapatalk is playing tricks, it attached this photo of an engine bay to your post. I only saw the car with roof spoiler when I logged on via explorer. Click image for larger version.

    I don't mind that one, that's more like a sun visor or something. The original looks like the kind of home made, crappy steel aero spoiler I'd expect to find on the back of a VL commodore.. Although I suppose that would be quite useful to deflect all manner of bugs and other debris up into the windshield of any tailgating trucks

    The other factor to be considered, which has not been mentioned here is noise. Any thing that get in the way of the vehicles slipstream will induce more noise... Though this can be compensated for by a good stereo
