I don't think it is out yet, it is not the regular JCW spoiler, it supposedly was wind tunnel designed ....?

That's my next approach...DTM. I like what they did but not the execution...nit picky me
The current one we're developing is like a larger version of the factory Aero wing but designed with adjustable downforce for those of use who want function but prefer to be "discrete"

No idea....haven't even heard much about the GP yet, let alone the price of the parts (if they even sell them seperately)
If they do sell pieces seperately, i want the wiperless rear glass

Yes but we can't show anything yet...the surfacing is 99% complete and JS is moving ahead to make a fiberglass prototype on which final surfacing will be made. Afterwhich, we (more likely he) will be doing field testing. At that point, we may be able to show images of this prototype. Hang tight...you'll like this one

Well, if you insist...here's it is heavily disguised on a equally disguised Mini
Of course I'm kiddn...I'm going to get hold of my trusty aerodynamisist contacts at Ford and GM for the final touch
