C8 Coupe Rear Window Spoiler
Setting price aside does the rear engine window look better with or without a rear window spoiler? I have my opinion but want to hear what you think.
Again, we’re NOT talking about the price of the spoiler it’s a simple question about looks.

That window spoiler looks like an aftermarket add-on...
I prefer the glass edge...Much cleaner / streamlined appearance...

Looks aside and speculation on my part, I think it would also have an aerodynamic effect of disrupting airflow and lessening the drawing of hot engine air out of the space between the end of the window and rear deck. I wouldn't waste my money on that piece.

Not a fan of the look of that spoiler on the window.

Photos look good but one of the guys in our club put one on and it went flying off. He said he cleaned it well and put adhesion promoter on and it still ripped off the glass. I wanted to see what it looked like in person but that happened 
I think it's a lot for such a small piece. I get it, it is painted and paint is expensive now a days but still, I probably would not purchase it.
