I'm not really sure where to find it, but I'm sure if you look for an evo one you will. I think our back windows are the same...Also do you have the vortex generator? I'm pretty sure if you get that, it will mess up the air flow of the generator.

With the VG once you get to 88mph you'll...... get a ticket.LOL

Seriously the idea is that areas like the transition between the roof and rear window on the average car creates a large vortex. Any large vortices effectively grab the car and try to hold it back as it tries to slip through the air. If the air that makes up the vortex can be "tripped" before it leaves the back of the car, it will make smaller vortices, which will have a smaller effect on the overall aerodynamics of the vehicle.

that was a pretty good explanation...some older jet aircraft had them on the wings for the same reason when they were trying to break through the transonic transition and achieve super sonic speeds.

though keep in mind the vg is only effective with the evo spoiler. which would mean nothing for us since we're fwd

That window visor looks half decent actually. I am not that big of fan of the VG nor any other visors or spoilers (including the spoiler on my RA) but this is looking good to me. I like the rearrangement of the LANCER badge to make CLEAN. Great idea if your car is always spotless and free of any rust or paint contaminants lol. Definitely not mine. I try but just will not stay clean. Damn Newfoundland.

Could you get both to work the VG and the rear window spoiler? That might be too much tho!

for starters i have a VG for looks. its not going to do ANYTHING for performance and if someone thinks that they are stupid haha i mean unless you drive around at 120 all day long. & our rear windows are the same as the evo but IMO i dont like the way it looks.
