Default Tailgate spoilers

My V40 has a rather subtle tailgate spoiler, I was wondering if there were any other OEM options for a bit more attitude? Also will the bumper skirts from a ph1 fit a ph2?

There are two original Volvo spoilers, either the plain colour coded as fitted to 'Sport' models or the one with the black insert fitted to 'Sport Lux' models. The thumbnail shows the sport lux - same as Druids - but on a silver car.

The bumper trims are not interchangeable between phases. the bumper profile is different as are the mudflaps.

There are 3 rear spoilers, first one was fitted to earlier models, quite plain and thin, second one looks likes druids with the black inserts and third was fitted to the later models which is plain, but much wider..... will post pics later maybe..
