It gives the car more downforce

double side adhesive will be supplied with every piece for easy and reliable installation
Awesome! I mean, it's stuck to the car with tape. How can it not provide tons of downforce?

Would there not be a benefit to someone running a high mount rear wing? Wouldn't the spoiler direct more air straight back onto the wing?

Turbulent air sucks in general. You want air going under the wing, not on the top.
