I have an OEM on one car and an SAS on another. The SAS I have needed quite a bit of work to make it fit correctly on my '92. The edge that fits under the rear window weatherstrip needed to be reworked, and the edge that fits against the hatch needed to be reworked as well. If you are handy with fiberglass and resins, not too difficult. The benefit of the SAS is that it is MUCH lighter than the OEM whaletail. It can be painted to look like a 2-piece, but it is a solid casting.
Here is my SAS tail. I cut a little groove in it where the OEM seam is on the 2-piece tail and painted the outer part to look like rubber. Jon did the same, but didn't cut the groove on his.
