That is a rear diffuser, probably bigger than necessary but it should definitely help with downforce.

If I'm not mistaken I think the GT86/FRS version is already available in japan. As far as the BRZ version I'm not sure, but I do know they have pics of it as well. The only differences are in the front lip spoiler design.

I'm considering going with the S202 style wing for my BRZ Premium. I had the real JDM STI version on my first WRX and wish I hadn't sold the car with it on there:

Megan Racing and a couple others still make replicas in carbon fiber and I may go that way once I can get a second trunk lid.

That looks so awesome, I'd love to get a wing exactly this size and height for my fr-s, it would look so nice!

I've been searching for a while for the wing I want to go with. This one is the size and look I've been wanting for my FR-S. Does anyone have a clue what sort of drag effects this would have on an FR-S/BRZ? I know there is a science to this wing thing and I don't want to adversely affect aero dynamics. It's unlikely I'd get all the race benefits from a wing, mostly daily street driving, but I would like this look without going with the big wings and I'd like something a little more than a lip. Any suggestions?
