Would have to see it before I pass judgement, although doesn't sound too visually appealing...

To my knowledge there isn't one for the panther platform.

This is a roof line spoiler for a 2008 Ford Taurus.

Muhahahaha!! I thought I lost my mind for a second.

I don't think they look bad, I also didn't know they even made any for a Marauder. I think older cars from the 50's and older had them over the windshield. Dunno about the back window.

If you aren't going in for them, then you ARE the backdoor shenanigans......

Isn't that more of a sun screen than a spoiler??

IMHO they only look good on hatchbacks or wagons.

I made one once for a Datsun 200sx i once had. Thought about trying to find one for the MM or maybe louvers.

If you want to talk roof spoilers, take a look at the Mad Max cars
Now there is a roof spoiler. Particularly the interceptors. The yellow 4 door ones.
Add that to the rear spoiler and what do you really acomplish
(My apelling is the worst) Check out the link:

Other than looks, it may upset the handling of the car at high speed. I did a reasonable aftermarket on the hatch I used to own. Prior to that install the car was rock solid at 130mph, after, it got a little hairy at 120. I needed to balance it will a front airdam to hold the front end down, but traded the car before I got around to putting one on. Stick with the OEM rear spolier, looks good and does not upset the handling.
