TRD Griffon Wing??
 
Seriously...I want this wing worse than pretty much every other modification I already have on my car...and that's a lot of cool bits. I can never find any good shots of the wing and the supports but I want it because it's FUNCTIONAL and sexy. I need downforce over the rear end to stabilize the car at speed, some people say they feel stable but I can feel the ass end of my car almost skitter over the pavement at speeds over 130mph and I'd really like it to stop ;)

So if anyone has or knows someone who has better pics of this wing it would be greatly appreciated and who knows, maybe we can generate enough interest to have this wing come to the aftermarket.

How often are you doing 130mph that you would need this? Totally serious question.

Seems a bit over the top, but your choice.

Edit: looks a bit structurally unstable

a ducktail and a wing?! hmmm too much?

How is it attached to the boot? That looks too flush to be bolted, and I'd be a little concerned with that amount of wind resistance vs. 3M double sided tape, especially on such a small adhesive surface area.

Certainly is a sexy piece minus the OEM spoiler under there.

Unnecessary.

It's mounted on the bottom of the trunk.
