This is such an regular topic with the same views every time a NEWBIE asks the question!!
The problem is that some owners are just so bloody precious about their cars and won't or can't admit the faults ...in this case "shape"of the DRB which is quite a significant "FLAW" in the Body Shape ...Personally if I were the manufacturer I would have made the effort to correct it over the years but they have not chosen to do so!!Still this has not been detrimental to the overall car(Except when it rains and the water flows downhill onto the Occupants backs ).....it is proven buy the volume of DRB's on the road...and their collective success at National and local events
Beauty is in the eye of the OWNER!!!...and the potential new builder or buyer is entitled to hear all of the Pro's and Con's with EVERY suppliers product!!
