Spoiler on Passat?

As you are probably aware, the new passat bootlid raises automatically when opened, if you add even a small lip spoiler, the extra weight will stop this feature. This feature is handy when you have shopping in your hand and press the boot release on the remote.
 
Dont do it !

I loved the spolier (or shopping trolly look, i.e. handy for pushing when it breaks down :) ) in the 80's / early 90's, but in my opinion, nowadays even small spoilers looks tacky / out of date on any modern car, thats why manufactures dont generally fit them anymore.

When buying second hand, I always feel like steering clear of cars with even small spoilers as its looks like the previous owner was a closet boy racer or modifier.

But having said all that, each to his own, spoil a way !
