Mimicing the roofline of the contemporary Prius or Insight would put you in the money.
Since 'appearance' is an issue,you might search for a 'production' rear spoiler ( from any car ) which would fit the trunklid of the Camry,which would both extend the 'length'of the trunklid,and also terminate at a higher elevation at the trailing edge than what you have.
Consider,that for a modern day CIVIC sedan,to approach the low-drag roof of today's Insight requires a rear spoiler 130-mm high,reaching 65-mm further back.
