Default Rear spoiler options (currently turbo spoiler)

Ideally I would like to have a spoiler not as big as the turbo spoiler - preferbly oem motorized version.

How costly will this be to change this? I found an OEM rear deck lid with motorized spoiler (no motor). Do any of you have this but non-functioning? Is that weird? I don't think i really need the added down force from the oem motorized spoiler. How involved and $$$ is it to get it all working?

Alternatively:

Duck spoiler
RS spoiler

Other suggestions?

THnaks!

Where are you located? Do you have the OEM turbo spoiler? What color is it painted? I ask because you may very well be able to find someone willing to swap a stock deck lid for your turbo spoiler... especially easy if the colors match and no painting will be required. BTW, the Turbo S spoiler is not quite as wide as the standard turbo spoiler, if that makes a difference to you. It looks nice on a narrow body car.

Default hello from Switzerland

I am from Switzerland too and I am currently retrofitting the oem spoiler. some work involved if you have the parts as a puzzle. Incidentely my car stands in Oberwil near to you, so that should be near to you;-). If you like the "small" RS spoiler then look into ricardo. My car is polar silver. I am selling it or PM me in German if you have any more question.

The ducktail is new to me and I am excited about it. The look is great, it saves a ton of weight in the rear and was relatively cheap. If you like the look, it might be an good option. Oh, easy instal too.
