I'll be sanding and shaping the whole tail once I get the foam built up, so it will have significant tumblehome and the baseplate won't be square. Not quite circular, either, but more like MetroMPG's Civic/Prius tail, which showed good attachment on his tuft test videos.
A block-off plate for the top is something I'm still trying to figure out. Toyota, in its infinite wisdom, put the only release button for the hatch on the outside of the car, under the emblem, so I have to be able to reach that in order to open it. The spoiler is plastic, so magnets won't work for a panel hinged to the tail. Maybe something attached to the spoiler with a small opening to reach through and hit the button.
