The home market ETKA link we were all looking at last week shows this spoiler, as well as the tilting glass sunroof assembly. I was admiring the improved look and functionality over the luggage rack we all have (which I have never used).

Yes, Bill. That is indeed the part I was referring to. I thought about making for a Country Homes Camper I used to own. Gives the poptop a more complete look. As far as function, besides fairing the front edge is the poptop, it is as functional as the rear buttress supports on the Maserati Bora & Merak. They are mostly for cosmetics.
