If you want a functional spoiler stick with what you have. Remember that the WRC car and the evo are very different cars, for one the WRC car is actually a lancer. I'd be very skeptical that putting a spoiler like that on an evo would actually do anything in terms of handling or stability, at most it'll make the car handle better cause your wallet will be empty.

Part of the reason they designed that ugly a*s thing was because in WRC rules it allows you to have a bigger spoiler if it's within X number of inches of the back glass. You have to remember just because that's what they put on the race car doesn't mean it is the most efficient design. It's just the most efficient design that fits the rules.

Considering you are not bound by WRC rules I would think you could make a traditional wing much more efficient than the WRC thing.

Unless by some chance you actually like the look of it and that's why you want it. If that's the case, good luck.

Here's that rallytech company somebody mentioned http://www.rallytech.co.uk/. You could probably get them to make you a wing, but considering they don't even put their prices on their site, it's not going to be cheap.

Yep, thats the one. The dealer that i got my rally parts comes from http://www.motordrive.com/acatalog/catalogbody.html
I think it costs the same as the dog gear. Somewhere around $8000.

Jesus, that's a hell of a lot of money for something that most people think looks like crap.

If you buy it from the dealership, you can get a full CF version for under 500$.
