Are you guys noticing a decrease in mpg due to the increased drag?

I didn't see a noticeable difference. But when I drive in rain on the highway now you can see it works, the water spray from the road gets sucked up way higher than without the wickerbill. I will say logically there is most likely a small decrease in mpg and a small increase in downforce.

I would like amore aggressive spoiler too, but dont like wicker bills very much.

I am really leaning towards the Anvil Notch Spoiler. Similar to a whicker bill on the 1LE spoiler in profile, but won't cause the unwanted drag. All for show in other words.

Had one on my 5th Gen, and LOVED it.

Zl1 ads ons.. useless. Adding downforce to rear without equal add to front is pointless.. it hurt mpg and straightaway speed with out any noticeable impact on corner speed.. has been tested by others with same results.

I don't see why adding downforce to the rear and not the front on our cars is pointless. The weight bias of the chassis means the front is heavier by a few hundred lbs so adding downforce to the rear would bring it closer to 50/50 weight distribution.
