Question Rear Window Spoiler?

Does anyone know where I can find a rear window spoiler? I've seen them on WRXs and EVOs and I think it would look great on a Cobalt SS, but I'm having trouble finding one

a rear window spoiler would kill the lines of the car IMO. I like how the roof line flows into the rear glass and then the trunk, having a spoiler on top of the rear glass would look horrible IMO.

Your not going to find one made for the Cobalt's so your next best option is to hope a Subaru one fits.

It isnt that it is too long it is that it is too flat, the sedan might be able to pull one off but I doubt it.

My buddy Kevin has them on his car. I think his car pulls them off well. I wasnt sure i would like it at first, then he put them on and posted pics. Looks pretty sweet on his ride. Might look a little off on some cars though......

I think it would look differente but on a coupe with the curved window IDK,,, you can also buy a m3 style spoiler and since its thinner and more flexible you can mold it to the window...

Thats still a vortex genorator

Just a different style.

and an STI one will NOT fit an SS, I tried it the other day.

It would look good if it would fit, but sadly no you could cut it in the middle and weld it back together but thats the only way your getting one.
