Spoiler Question

I have an 02 honda civic ex 5spd coupe. The trunk lid is damaged from a mild rear impact and I am looking to replace from a salvage yard. I have only been able to locate one that matches my car paint code but it has the factory spoiler on it.

Question is...will this have a significant impact on my fuel economy. I drive 22 miles to work each way but it is all city. I average about 34.5 currently. I do not want to purchase a new hood and then have to paint it when I can get one under half the price. If the difference in fuel economy will be negligible, I might jump on the one I found. I knew this was the place to ask. I am 36 years old and not looking to be cool, just practical.
