This thing? I don't know who sells them, but I believe they are a Ralliart accessory which means lots of $$$.

Next thing you know the EVO IX MR will have optional plane wings, except mounted upside down, with engines mounted and all. Maybe even optional retractable landing gear and a complimentary lightweight female flight attendant.

All for the sake of downforce, of course.

Indeed! On a more serious note, I wouldn't mind tracking down that antenna.

I thought about adding those to cars. Shouldn't they be at about a 45 degree angle to the direction of travel.

Travel direction vortex generators positioned like \ \ \ \ \ / / / /

And, since the car is more prone to understeer, wouldn't it be better if the vortex generators were in the front of the car to improve downforce on the front wheels?

They do look cool at the rear edge of the roof. Prolly need a window sticker "CAUTION SEVERE TIRE DAMAGE" to go with it though.
