Default Spoon hardtop and GT Spoiler Practical?

My S2k is my everyday driver and I use my trunk alot I want a spoon hardtop, but I also quiet like the GT spoiler look with it. My question is if if I have both will I loose my ability to open my trunk? I know the spoon hardtop back pops up to give you access to the trunk I just don't know if the spoiler would allow enough clearance or not.

If you use the trunk a lot, why would you want the hassle? There's better options. Plus the Spoon top is a tough mod to pull off. Only heavily modded cars look right with them.

stick with the OEM

you wont be disappointed

the added rear viewing angle from the OEM HT window is the BEST thing about the hard top
no more blind spots

I've never seen one in real life but the pictures always remind me of Porche 928 and the 240Z. Not that these cars look bad but why destroy the classic looks of the S2000. Any of the after market besides this one or OEM are better choices.

A s2000 is a sexy convertible, why would you want a hard top feature?

Some people don't like convertibles.

For me, it was a huge selling point. Always wanted a convertible.

I wouldn't mind If it was a targa either.
