Does anyone know of a small tasteful spoiler for the convertibles? Seems like all of the spoilers are made for the fastback. I don't want a Fast and Furious wing, just a small spoiler to finish the trunk. It looks lacking without it.

I've been told that the Air Design is marketed under more than one name. I got mine off of eBay, prepainted and after 4 years, I'm still pleased with the product. The fit was good, however a downside was that I had to drill new holes in the decklid, and sheet-metal type screws with hex heads were used to secure the spoiler. But for the price, and knowing I never plan to change it, I'm quite okay with the installation. As a FYI...I recommend sealing around all mounting holes (unused OEM and Air Design mounting holes) to prevent unwanted water intrusion.

Good advice Snakebyte! I sealed both ends of my spoiler since the original factory holes were right there.

Air Design doesn’t use screws/bolts. It uses 3M tape and adhesive. Mine is currently being installed.

I have the Air Design one going on my car. It just finished getting painted so it’ll be on early next week.

This is what I purchased back in 2020, and is the one I was told was actually Air Design. Mine has mounting screws, but a later poster stated Air Design uses only Tape. Personally, I feel better with having fasteners, but good 3M tape of the right amount, right thickness, and right P/N should be good as long as all mating surfaces are properly prepared.

I went with Air Design - a fairly subtle rear deck spoiler specifically for the convertible.

I had a roll of thick/fatter 3M so I added that to the thin 3M my spoiler came with…rock solid, no issues.

Much appreciated!
