Yes, and the formation of that crown is part of why I kept the portion laying on the decklid as short as possible last year. I wanted to capture the OEM contour a bit in the trailing edge of the spoiler, but not so much that the spoiler would not sit flat. I cut strips along the edges of the lid that reached toward the real window instead. I could extend them all the way up to the window in this years "CAD" template and attach security straps since the testing version is held on by tape and magnets. Here is a pic from last year (upside down!).
