Default Wolf lower rear spoiler extensions

Would anyone consider getting a carbon one if Marcus at Creative Carbon waved his magic wand and created them?

I'd consider putting on a spoiler that was the same height/shape as the joint Wolf/standard item if it could be done without showing the join, as an all in 1 item. Sort od a WRC-light spoiler if you see what I mean.

Or I'll just rivet an alloy gurney on the top of mine & giggle lots.

I would consider one, would it be finished in carbon so you could have it without painting or would it need to be painted?

another thing to consider would be the price

Was only seeing if there would be any interest first of all, I was thinking the finish would be as per the front spoiler/stone deflector-laquered carbon.

Yes but they have never been available in carbon to match everyones front spoiler splitter combo's (and carbon exhaust heat shields come to think of it) which I think would look really nice.
The new Prodrive AMV8 uses something a little similar and looks awesome I think

see here for pics

I think it would look good on the darker cars, black and mallard.

A wolf spoiler in carbon WILL look good on the cars of brighter colors as well. I painted mine in plain black on my old escort cosworth:

I'm not liking it on a red car either but on dark colours like mallard I think it will look great (in carbon)

it does look good if you are a connoisseur of Walter Wolf and the
conversion his company did for ford motor company.
in a earlier post of mine i asked for a photoshop of one done in black,
so i was thinking along the same lines as you
