Subtle Lip Spoiler - where is it?

I want a VERY subtle lip spoiler to accent the back of my car, but so far it hasn't surfaced. I was at a red light today and saw an old Caprice that had a spoiler similar to what I want. When will something like this appear?

Yeah... a rear window visor would look great.

Here is another example of a nice lip spoiler. M5.

Agreed, I would be in for something like this. Some of what's out now is nice, but nothing really catches my attention.

I've seen the 5axis and it's pretty minimal/stock-looking in person. Perhaps a bit more than you're looking for though.

The one on that M5 is what i would like too, i like the TRD but just the lip would be better for me. I like the gold S14 in your avatar too, my first car was a 95 in the same color and then a couple years ago i had a 96 also gold i did a few things too, Nismo sport suspension and 18" Nismo LMGT4's here's a pic...

sorry for the threadjack...

Check out the Carsmo spoiler http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=14262. Its not too big, and matches the factory lines well.

Grazio has a LOT of cool stuff! Here is the main link:
http://www.grazio-co.com/86/86_main.html

Just need to find pricing now...



That VERY SUBTLE spoiler is exactly what I was talking about... curious why @KaliKev said "Oh god" about it...

Here is a better photo.



@KEV-FRS, they also have a rear window spoiler!

I used a cheap ebay lip like one one here (that is actually my car):

They sell them in all kinds of lengths. You just need to measure the trunk line.

Hmmm... would it flex around the curved edge of the FR-S's trunk line?
