I imagine the trunk gap filler is to lower drag and keep the air that is attached to the rear glass from "tripping" in that gap. Should keep the air cleaner as it gets to the rear spoiler.

Wheel well "kickers" should help evacuate air from the wheelhouses.

Granted, this is assuming CFD and/or tunnel work was done.

Love the canards and the wheels.
The little spoiler to fill the gap between the rear window and the trunk is interesting too...

Sti , your move !

if you look from the side you can easily imagine how the front canards rout the air up to the fender canards then back to the tail light spoilers. i wonder how performance oriented these parts are...

Through your local TRD authorized dealer? Or anyone who has some sort of connections to TRD. Unless you have connections or your dealer is really good, you have to wait till October before you can purchase these items.
