    Don't know what you would classify a whale tale, guess a spoiler since air only goes over the top

    I'm looking for this particular wing with the Gurney flap for my project car... $1,500 for the replica new

    that is a wing. Looks nice too! spoilers are not functional. mainly cosmetic from the factory.

    Spoilers are functional. Take a look at the rear spoilers used for NASCAR before they switched to the new models.

    Here is the major difference, Wing allows the air to travel both over and under, while a spoiler is attached to the "Trunk Deck" and air can only pass over top.

    Formula 1 Car=Wing
    Monte Carlo SS=Spolier
