I envy all of you that drive hatchbacks.

Who has an idea for how to slightly modify a sedan? I have a Saturn SL1 that I would consider modifying slightly on the rear end.

The only two things I can think of are a possible spoiler on the trunk, if it was the right shape, to help with aerodynamics. Or, I've seen spoiler-like things go on the back of a lot of newer cars right above the rear window. That would be similar to a mini-camback? Right? Would something that small even make a noticable difference?
