I highly doubt it. The r50/53 spoiler was installed on top of the existing roof of the hatch, whereas the r56 has no finished roof, but instead, it is part of the spoiler. So basically there isn't technically a way to have "no spoiler" on an r56 because when you remove even the minuscule spoiler of a base r56, there is only semi painted sheet metal. Too bad though, cus I really did love the stock r53 spoiler, or even the optional "curved bill" spoiler that was available as a dealer add on. The r56 S spoiler isn't bad, but the lines were a bit more graceful on the r53. I would actually love to see the new f56 spoiler installed on an r56. I love the notched look of it.
