Many have done it. I for one don't like it cause of how round the wing is compared to the square 3rd gen rear end.

If using a factory 4th gen spoiler, the middle pedastals need to be extended. A aftermarket one made for the conversion wont need modified.

Dont do it, it looks weird. The round spoiler does not flow with the body lines of the car. If you like this spoiler then buy a 4th gen car.

Austin if you must insist here you go but I hate I had to post this link up...

Looks OK except where the front of the spoiler meets near the curve in the window. Doesn't flow, there are obvious missing body lines.
