850 Wagon - Critical Downforce - haha
 
I'm not labouring under the impression that the rear spoiler on the Wagon is exactly the means to happy aerodynamic motoring :) But, I was behind one the other day and the thing that became immediatly obvious, is that IT had a cleaner back window than I did.

Rather made me wonder if fitting one wouldn't be a good idea, has anyone, and if so, from whence did it come??

Thanks!

Did you happen to see if it had mudflaps in the rear? My guess is that's the reason why, not the spoiler. - AB

I didn't notice and thats a valid point, could have been.

I did base my observation on a tiny bit of experience and fact though (rare for me :-) ) and that was because some time ago, I had a a Grand Cherokee, the difference on that with a small rear spoiler was like night and day, the rear window for the main, stayed pretty clear,

That sounds reasonable. There has to be some people with T5-R's on here with the wing and no mudflaps that can comment. I know my rear window gets dirty really fast ;) - Aaron
