With one piece, what happens when you lift the trunk lid??
That's why.

The closest is the GT500 spoiler, or similar.

I know...
Problem with that is that it would be prone to breaking, since so much would stick out on either sides.
The second one, is that it would hit the quarters when you shut the lid[8D].
Too much flexing, even with a fiberglass one.

I haven't found one around any of the "normal" aftermarket sites...looks like you might have to go custom if you want it that bad!

It would also look like @ss, since you need a decent gap to clear the quarter panels.
It's OK on the Cobra or the late V6 spoiler because it's not a big portion sticking out.
Anything longer won't look right IMO.

That's why it's not available out there...
