Can anyone confirm?
it may not have a huge effect, i dont really know. but it has SOME effect. if you look back into the sierra sierra days, they ran a rather large gurney on the trunk lip. my understanding is that it servers to "charge" a diffuser because it will create a low pressure area at the trunk/rear bumper. that being said i would still think it has an effect on the rear wing in the area of efficiency, but i have no idea what that would look like in flow. i cant really see what that spoiler looks like in the video either.
It's a Rexspeed Type 3 trunk lid spoiler. I don't believe it affects the flow around the stock IX wing at all and I think that the flow around the stock wing at the standard height is good, but it is a low downforce airfoil.
