we dont want you to install a wing like that.

entirely too large, and serves no real purpose.

I don't think something like that would be too terrible if it were lower. Hack the legs off and mount it to the hatch.

It's a waist of money to buy wings like that when they dont do nothing. Just takes up your view from seeing the back especially if your car is front wheel drive.

And incorrect as well. All cars, FWD, RWD, AWD can experience rear end lift at high speeds. A spoiler (maybe not this exact spoiler) can reduce this effect, usually by creating areodynamic drag.

That spoiler's first function would be for a 'look at me' effect rather than making the car more stable at high speeds. I like the design, but the legs would have to be much shorter.
