You could always look at A4 boot lips and try and modify it slightly.

Don't know how hard that'd be.

I don't have any closer ones of the spoiler I'm afraid.
Here's a picture of a normal Vento boot lid, if you look along the lines you can see how it has a lip that flicks up slightly:

Yeah it is  :sad: Picture is from a summer show and there was some controversy about the guy on the gates not letting my car in. When it was eventually left in I was placed in a corner down the back and I was told to squeeze in over the lines and not take up much space so the 'better cars' could fit in. I wasn't the only one treated like that though and the guy on the gate got in sh!t over it afterwards.

Also my car is built not bought


just to throw a joking spanner in the works, unless you had all the bits given to you, then im guessing u had to buy them =  your car is bought

Using that logic, you could question whether even VW truly built it. After all, they bought the steel from somewhere...
