i saw a tc with hatch spoiler in several issues of super street in an ad for wings west. it was like a pedestal spoiler that was at the top of the glass hatch where it meets the glass roof. but i can't find it anywhere on their site www.wingswest.com

Even though the tC is a liftback it wouldn't look good with a hatch spoiler IMO. The xA an xB would tho since they're actually "hatch-backs" the tC looks like a regular car but has the function of a hatch-back like the celica, MR2, tiburon, etc. But whatever you want man it is YOUR car this is only our opinions.

How you're gonna mount a spoiler on GLASS is beyond me. Keep it off - it'll just be ugly and ricey.

Even though the tC is technically a hatchback, it's coupe-styled. It wouldn't look right.

i think if anything the tC would look silly w/a roof spoiler.

jsut gotta remember it's a fwd car, and the gains if any is minimal.

but if you're goin for looks i always thought a tC w/ say a kanimari wing and a air diffuser on the roof like the STi would look better.

but if you want a downforce type thing for the tC a air diffuser is your best choice to put on the front bottom of the car.

it would look stupid on a tc.. i'm realizing this because i looked at it today and it is too round. the cts v and beemers have more of a square roof. good point on the whole mounting to the glass thing.. just wanted to see if it was available though.. wasnt actually considering it yet
