hawks ramairhood.com and a few more of the sponsors up top. I have one from ramairhood.com, it comes with hardware but you can easily reuse the old.

Hawks spoiler apparently you have to grind off the metal clips that are currently on the metal ring around the rear window, and it clips on. Not a bad idea, considering that those rear window moldings are unusual in salvage yards and VERY expensive new. but the standard rear window WITHOUT the aero spoiler are much cheeper. Not to mention the spoiler is currently $350.00 Which is about $100 less than the other guys.

GTAuto which I believe had fallen off the planet, I hear they are not shipping things... had a very nice spoiler but getting one might be difficult. The later spoilers you could attach it either way, with original style clips or using the clips supplied.

ramairhood.. I know nothing

good luck
