You can order the part from Outmotoring for ~$900. I was quoted today $1500 for parts, paint, and install from a dealership.

Also confirmed that during install the current spoiler and folding mechanical bits are removed and the motor is left in and just deactivated.

From my rough calculations that still may leave you +10lbs with new spoiler. Poor lift gate is going to be impossible to use.

Who's going for it?

 

When my active spoiler "conks" out and they quote me $500 to fix it, I may just do the JCW spoiler

 

This.

 

I second that! Or third! In other words, I agree!

 

So by deactivating it. It won't affect the traction I believe was what someone said it might affect if wasn't working appropriate. Did they mention how it can be deactivated for those who would like to keep their spoiler up all the time or down?
