Will one of those fit my EM1? I was going to try and make something like that cause I didn't know this one existed. Anyone know where I can find one online?

so where is the air routed? does it just cover up the bumper area so air doesn't get caught up in there or what?

I looked through there but couldn't find it. Was probably looking in the wrong place.

Right on, thanks. $40 isn't bad but gives me a reason to rummage through the Honda junkyards around town.

That's pretty much the idea. It's there to reduce aerodynamic drag at freeway and higher speeds. Most likely reduces lift as well as a result of the minimized turbulence under the fascia/spare tire tub area. You probably won't see much, if any performance gain from this part. Maybe some stability at high speed, maybe on the racetrack, but for the 1/4, I highly doubt it would have any effect. You'd be better off removing the rear fascia(what everyone here refers to as the "bumper cover".
