Well done !
I'm really liking the look of that hard top !

As far as a down turned spoiler, the idea is that you want the airflow to follow the ideal shape as long as possible. By having a flat of upturned spoiler, you are kicking the airstream out of the ideal downward angle.

( But that is just my un-educated guess. )

Yea but I dont know if that window is plausible Ill have to look into it or add a little window to get that curve because the stock window is not like that...

Well the downward angle would work IF the airflow stays attatched... I dont know if the angle of the top is to steep for it to stay attatched though...

Just like in the hatchbacks that I have seen here, most spoilers they use are straight not downward...
