Not a cheap alternative, but it is an even bigger gurney lip and in combination with the larger top center, looks awesome on the car

Looks like a star ship mock up for the next Star Trek movie. For some reason I can see a motorcycle cop using that wing on my car as a table to write a ticket on.

R and D and liability.

Lawyer: so you are going to sell a $5 piece of plastic to go on the wing of the car. Why?
Porsche: to help stablize the car at 150 mph.
Lawyer: and what are you going to do when sally homemaker sews the crap out of you becasue her hubby died in a car crash going 149 mph becasue he was trying out his new $5 plastic piece that claimed it would make the car go faster and he wanted to "test it out"
Porsche: thats your problem
Lawyer: increase your liability insurance, you are going to need it.
