A spoiler is the piece on a late 70's trans am or caramo no air goes under it. Does somegood for down force but makes a lot of drag because no air passing under. And you say spoiled the looks of the car have you seen a TA without a spoiler

People often confuse these things. An air foil or wing does not have to have air traveling under it.
Some foils spoilersare designed to help with breaking but for the most part this appears on later cars such as the SLR McLarenwith an air-brake on the rear spoiler. The air-brake activates under hard braking above 100km/h (60mph) and produces extra downforce which decreases braking distance.

you guys are still fighting just call a f-ing truce.a spoiler dose not spoil the look or a car just the crappy ones and a fart can dose not make you a ricer damn did you not read the post where tired of ******** saying people are ricer when they have the parts that some ricers do have btw my apexi is considerd a fart can but it is a very good performer and dose not sound like most of the cheap stuff like off ebay.....i think another def for a ricer like person should be the people who buy this stuff on ebay for 20-40 bucks and don't get any hp but say it added twice as much powerwhile some people have to cut corners but atleast reserch stuff before you buy a 0hp exhuast or a $10 ecu that adds 300hp

You guys are really going to hate this one. Go to your local weld shop, have them bend a two inch wide strip of sheet metal to a 90 degree angle. Take it home and while you're watching NOPI Tunervison cut it into inch wide sectons. During the commercial breaks blind rivet the sections to your trunk lid. You don't even have to lay them out neatly if you're lazy. If you want you can rivet some to the rear section of your roof. It will work just as good as any spoiler with less drag.
Oh and BTW if you want a decent exhaust, buy the walker Dynomax 2 1/2 inch exhaust pipes and a Flowmaster Series 40 muffler with 2 1/2 inlet and outlet. Get a 2 1/2 inch 90 degree stainless mandrel bend elbow to finish it off. You will have to fab up round stock to fit the rubber muffler hangers.
