Just an idea i thought while seeing some threads about custom body kits... The 2g Magna differs from the Diamante in that the rear side windows are split... has anyone thought about filling that rear bit in with some fiberglass and turning it into a sail panel like on older mustangs.

Something like this:

If you got real inventive you could work it into rear brake vents but mainly just for looks?

EDIT: To further get what i'm thinking across i did a photochop of TR-Envy's car (hope you dont mind :D).

just filling it in with panel seems to look good, but the sail takes it too far

I dont think it would look good unless you chopped half the roof off and made the car fastback :P.

My main concern would be the blind-spot, but hey I've got a wagon, so no problems there :D
