C5-R Spoiler

Does anyone sell a replica C5-R spoiler (or possibly other parts)? I saw a picture of it and it looked really cool, but I couldn't find anyone selling a replica (curious as to what it would sell for).

Breathless performance is marketing a carbon-fiber(esque) wing set up. I think they look ridiculous on anything other than a serious track car, but hey it's your car, whoop it up!

Except it really doesn't. It is functional on a race car at high speeds, but on a street car, it will act as an ugly parachute that will block your rear visibility. Know what the difference is between a big wing on a Corvette and a big wing on a Civic?

Nothing.
