Use your brain power Chris! I know that is a Mazdaspeed componenet, but if some makes a replica, that might be a good option.

The Wings West one looks nice. The one on the red SA is a bit excessive for my taste.

That is indeed the Mazdaspeed IMSA spoiler. GTU/GTO kits share the same wing. Mazdaspeed still sells it (and the whole widebody GTU and GTO kits) to members.
