The Naboo Prowler is the result of a 'Build The Same Model - Naboo Fighter' contest at my local IPMS. I though I had a chance at winning until a guy came in late with a full-up Navy version with landing gear and folded wings.

The model contains only parts from the Naboo Fighter and a snap-fit Plymouth Prowler, with lots of putty, especially in the back. The upper and lower front pieces of the Naboo Fighter became the front and rear decks of the Prowler, respectively. The graft of the rear deck caused the Prowler to take on a nice boat-tail appearance. It looked OK, but not too exotic at that point. So I decided the wings would make a nice spoiler - engines included.

Note that use of the Ion engines on the spoiler is not recommended for city driving, as mileage suffers. They have been known to be effective in putting out the eye-level headlights of following SUVs, however.
