I think the root of a full duck tail should be further down the lid, so it may not look right.

I've always loved the subtle look and shape of this Mini spoiler, which is one of the reasons I decided to make a replica of it. To my eye it, it would be hard to improve upon.

I've considered making a larger spoiler but at a certain point you're simply better off replacing the whole decklid. I'm a traditionalist, really, so that means either a flat decklid in cf, or a 2.7RS ducktail. Both are in the works, but the decklid will be first.
