The other problem is doing it in a "legal" manner. The merc concept wouldn't be legal to produce in the UK. For one the rear lights cannot be seen from the side of the vehicle, it's possible, but in the UK if you cover the tail lights or the number plate the police will be on your case in an instant.
The easiest way I can think is to make a diffuser on runners, with a little motor on a worm gear and two limit switches, fully open and fully closed.
You'd have a step in the floor, but it'd be better.
The material can be anything really. Think of a drawer.
It can reside inside the rear bumper above the undertray using a slot...

The sides I cannot begin to think of a way to do, due to blocking the lights from certain directions ( safety is number one!)
A lengthening spoiler would be very car specific also really difficult, but less so than the sides
