Gen 7.5 Wing fit on a Gen 7

Hey ECM,
I was researching and I did not find the info I was looking for.
Does anyone know if a 06-07 Sedan OEM Wing will fit on a 03-05 Sedan with a flush look like if it was meant for it?
I was hoping someone had the time and money to give it a try. I am not sure about everyone else but I think the 06-07 wing is much more aggressive then the 03-07wing.

The wing spoiler or the lip spoiler? I think the lip spoiler would require a bunch of work to fit properly and look good. If it's the wing spoiler, it may be a direct fit or you may be able to get it to fit with some work. I don't know of anyone else that has done it yet, but you should be innovative and give it a try.

I have a feeling that it would work without too much trouble. However, you have to take into account that the 03-05 wing has a built in third brake light while the 06-07 does not. You'd be blocking your third brake light.
As far as fitment goes, both trunks are relatively flat and the same on the top. Do what Tim said and go for it.

The lip spoiler wouldn't work at all. The top of the trunk has sort of a trapezoidal shape to it when looked in plan view. The angles run from the edge back to the rear window. The wing spoiler might work. Measurements would need to be taken, as the 7th gen is more rounded than a 7.5 gen.

I am talking about the Wing Soiler, I am well aware that the lip spoiller will have no chance to work.
And good catch on the Third barke light being blocked.

Well I did some more reaserch and found this car on CarDomain, and it looks like Gen7.5 wing. But I message the owner to be 100% if it is, and maybe ask for better pics.

I really like both, I am going to have to see how much they cost, that will determine my decision.
