HIstorically speaking, on enthusiast cars, OEM and bone stock generally endures better than whatever contemporary mods were in fashion wthen the model was in production. Keystone mags were once all the rage on muscle cars back in the day as the factory offerings were consider lame. History repeats.

This is my second choice next to low profile....Though I will that agree the original design (no added spoiler) for me looks best with HTC...

I'm definitely not a fan of any aftermarket spoilers as they look like overly designed after thoughts....

I've got the Paragon Performance V1 Gurney Flap for the Z51 spoiler. Its a more subtle add on to any Z51 spoiler. I liked it at first but I'm going to go a different route on my HTC.

I'm surprised that there isn't a retraceable/power adjustable option available.

Something on the order of the 1969 SuperBird wing (lowered so the wing is at roof height
Which should look a lot like the wing on the Ferrari F40.

Did they include the option to choose which liquids and/or beverages come out of those two faucets in the middle of the wing?

…what kills me is they ALSO left a low rise spoiler installed too…twice as many spoilers means twice as much downforce I guess 🤦‍♂️😜

The reason biplanes fell out of favor is that your statement is not true.
2 wings in proximity to each other does not produce 2× the lift (DF) but more like 1.5× with 2× the drag.
