As for lip and fenders thats something we are looking into after we feel the wing is a go. There are alot of meetings waiting in January with various companies and need to wait a while to show you the final one.

I like the direction of the renders for the trunk style the way it is! compliments the lines of the car and is unique for sure

We got a record snowfall here in Arkansas. Christmas holiday extended an extra day due to 6-10" of snowfall here after we got a layer of ice down first.

I have seen the first render picture going around instagram in the last few days. Good comments from people.

I see what you mean. I was wondering if you could do something about that particular line since it kind of crashes into the OEM contour. Maybe, if you picked up the contour of the top rear fender line with the trunk and quickly pulled away with a smooth curve, you could still get the length you are after while blending your lines with the OEM lines. Granted, it wouldn't be quite as wide, but I think it would flow better. An alternative to consider is adding a pair of small pieces to the rear fenders on either side to accomplish the same task while keeping your original vision of having a large spoiler.

Regardless, your spoiler design is my absolute favorite by far. I love the buttresses and I've often envisioned having such a styling touch to a duckbill spoiler. Bravo to you and your vision.
