Pics of model of STi roof spoiler
I made a model of the STi roof spoiler out of cardboard and styrofoam to see how it would look on the 6th gen max. I painted it to get as close as I could to what it would look like. The cardboard took the paint fine, but the styro didnt. ANyway, here are a few pics. WHat do you think?

With craftsmanship like that don't look for a call from This Old House.
But from a style standpoint I think it looks better than the Subaru one you liked, that one is way too big for the Max. This one is small and thin and looks like the Sarona but lifted off of the glass to give a little more athletic stance. I think this could be a seller if someone would make it.

Hey Frost: Good question. The spray tint got cloudy and faded AGAIN. This weekend, Im driving down to Batmobile who sells custom overlays and Im going to get film tint. Ill show pics when I put them on. I think it will be MUCH better. Looknig forward to getting it done right.

I kinda figured I'd take a beating on this, and its ok. Here is a picture of a 2002 BMW M3 Hamann that depicts the look that Im looking for in my car, except not quite as aggressive.
If you guys don't think this is one smokin Bimmer, we are on different wavelengths. Anyway, keep the comments coming, good or bad.

Hey Deus i don't know if you've seen this or not but if you go to this page (http://myweb.cableone.net/carcster88/Spoilers.html) and scroll down to the picture of the majestic blue maxima it might be what your looking for!

A little OT:
The black Street Scenes max has the chrome roof and window trim painted black to match. http://myweb.cableone.net/carcster88/Spoilers.html We talked about this before when we talked about Bluebat making overlays for them, I think it looks really good. Ok, now, back to the rear window wing discussion.

in any case by adding that wing or spoiler(its in between the two)in your car you might even be screwing up its aerodynamics, (the one in the back is big enough and it looks good), so i think that if you do it, it would only be for looks
also if you added you are taking all the wind out of the big one, making it useless

If you want my opinion i think that it's a lil bit too much. One spoiler is more than enough and if you really want to get the wrx style roof spoiler then I'd take the trunk one off. 6th gen rear ends are really beefed up as is no need to put more stuff up there.
