Anyone know how well new beetle spoilers/whale tails fit the old beetles?

Yup, another one of my crazy thoughts.

Was being a 'dreamer' this morning thinking about ideal ways to mount air to air intercoolers or air to water intercooler heat exchangers in a place not too far from the engine but in direct contact with passing wind.

Ebay has some well priced 'petite' new beetle spoilers in either 2 pac or carbon fibre, and look tidier IMO compared to the ol' bug whale tail body kits.

I was considering the possibility of 'graphing' the air to air intercooler or heat exchanger inside it, and the spoiler itself would tidy the job, plus assist in the mounting process. I have confirmed the availability in long, narrow intercoolers and heat exchangers to suit, thats no worries.

whats your opinions?
Again, just dreaming... but i like to dream/think aloud. 🙂
