if your talkin bout what i think your talkin about their there for letting the excess air out of your bumber area. some of the air that travels under your car can get caught in the rear bumper and add resistance. ;)heres one that i could find a pic of but most have like 6 or so oval holes. i just couldnt find a pic.

the "technical" term is rear diffuser, not that i'm tryin ta be a smartass, well... even though i am i guess. anyway, i don't really see a need for them unless you remove your bumper. i removed my bumper (not the entire thing, just the actual bumper under the bumper cover) and i shaved like a sec. of my e.t. ... no not really.
