There's a side-view pic of the Kammback on Black Widow's page, and I just added a rear view of it. It's a mini (not a giant one like you have) that was actually made for the Festiva. I didn't even know they made them, but my kid saw it on Craigslist, so I had to have it.
I used super duty trim tape from Advance Auto to install it, and so far no issues at all, and it fit perfectly.
It has a lip on the back side that would make a perfect platform for an extension. So of course I'm already drawing up extensions and figuring out what materials I could use . . . . .

One plus is that before I installed the Kammback, I washed the car. I then realized the top end is a really nice red! It had been about a year since the last time I washed it, so I had forgotten what it even looked like

Yeah, there are two spots I actually coast down and bump start on my route.
The one in the morning is a pretty long hill (for Florida) and I actually coast for about a quarter mile before I have to start it. I can only do that one when there's nobody behind me though.
The one on the way home is a tiny but steep hill at a set of RR tracks right at a light. I actually start the car half way through the intersection in second gear at that one.
