Better than the carbon fiber spoiler for the Teggy. It requires new mounting holes in the hatch lid. Dumb

Looks nice, but isn't the risk of theft pretty high since the mounting bolts look like they're easily accessible?
There's always the risk of someone stealing the whole car too..

Not for me, I’m of the opinion carbon fiber items are bit played out at this stage. There’s no benefit to the vast majority of these items other then a bit of a visual appeal when you’re up close.

I remember seeing somewhere that they had little proprietary screws for sale somewhere, probably in that same mysterious picture of the Japanese catalog that has the downforce information on the spoiler

Anybody know if this will affect the MPGs of the car?

I know with my Mustang adding that little gurney flap to the spoiler decrease gas mileage by 2 mpgs

Probably, since it would be creating more drag compared to the stock wing. How much would it affect MPG? Not sure.
