Did he just tack on a spoiler or something???? I don't think that it's fast enough it has to worry about lift...or that that would help...

I think it's supposed to be some kind of downforce wing...can't remember where i saw it from. I know you'll find the company in the back of CC, CHP, HR, or SC where those little ad's are..

Yeah I've seen those on corvettes too. they are suppose to be some kind of front spoiler for the front. Hear it really works for more aerodynamics and downforce, but it looks ugly as sin. too many spoilers.

It is a downforce spoiler. On a really, really fast car (like Indy) downforce wings are required to avoid "pushing" into corners and to keep the front end from lifting. On that Camaro, it is just for show.
