Default Ducktail spoiler?

Hello all. I know there's been a lot of posts about ducktail spoilers but there seems to still be info missing. I'm mostly interested in Cervini, CDC, and StreetScene. But the Cervini C-series seems too tall, and the Cervini Type III seems too short (although I like their hole deletes)
I really like the deletion of the center brake light on the CDC ducktail, as well as the availability of pre-painted ones, but it seems quite short as well. The Street Scene ducktail appears to be the right height but it's really hard to tell from the photos.
Like exactly how tall off the trunk are they? Cervini C-series says it 4" off the trunk, (although when I called, the gal there said they were 2" off the trunk). The others don't say how tall they are. I don't want a puny spoiler, and not one that will block my convertible's already slim rear view... Any thoughts, reviews, suggestions, or height measurements? Also a good place in Northern NJ to get it painted if necessary...?
Thanks in advance!
Tomm

I am not even sure which version my buddy smokey07 has on here but I think his is one of the best looking ones and he may know of a good body shop too.

hmm, looks tall but I think it is only 2" tall on decklid. Here is a pic of the Cervini's on the black car to the right. The blue one on the left has the smaller ducktail from CDC. Hope this helps.

Found a better pic of the CDC one, it is definitely a shorter spoiler than the Cervini's ducktail one.

Glad you mentioned it, I had to ask him after this post. It is a Street Scenes Gen 1 ducktail. I thought it was the CDC for that was the one he was going to buy. He did not for the 3rd brake light being covered. Thanks for bringing this up Sizes are similar between the 2 though.

Thanks for all the replies! I've been getting conflicting info from the mfgrs: Cervivi today said that the C-series was actually 4" off the trunk lid (too tall for me) but their Type III is approx 2.5" high (good height plus they have the cool colored hole covers) The Street Scene Generation 1 is supposed to be 3" tall (also good height, but no hole covers). I spoke with CDC and the guy there went out and measured and he said it was only 1.25" up from the trunk. Which seems really short to me. Now, I would prefer to get the CDC because I like the brake light delete and they come pre-painted really cheap, but I don't want spoiler envy because my wing is too short! If it was 2-3" up from the trunk, it'd be perfect (the wing that is)!
