Rumion spoiler?
Just looking for a picture/name for a specific spoiler on the xb2.
I've only seen a picture of it once, but it was extremely smooth, and looked like it blended into the back of the hatch perfectly.
It isn't the regular rumion spoiler, which seems like a short version of the xb's spoiler.
If anyone has any idea what I'm talking about, pleeease let me know the name of it, and where I can find one. (Trolling around ebay japan isn't really a problem)

Perhaps this question is immaterial, but does anyone have reason to believe it's more effective at keeping the rear window clean than the Scion spoiler? Reason I ask is people tend to freak over how something looks, but totally overlook how effective or ineffective it might be

My reasoning for wanting it is because it is the only spoiler for our cars that doesn't have a large gap in it between the hatch and spoiler.
It is one solid piece, and seemingly would be the "most" effective at providing the least amount of down force for our fwd cars, while helping keep the back window clean.

From reading, the Scion design doesn't provide any down force to speak of, it just splits the flow so as to both clear the rear window and reduce rear turbulence. Shrinking that gap could actually reduce window clearing effectiveness. Course, the only way to find out for sure would be to spend time with both.

i've asked the question about the spoiler keeping the window clean before. either nobody responded or i didn't like the answer i got. probably from trevorS.
now i have 5% on my rear window. it's not so much of and issue. since it's harder to see out anyway.
