Default Marga Hills rear wing for DC2

Anyone got one of these, all i can find are promotional photographs and Marga Hills own website is in japanese so cant find out any info on them. Does anyone know if the whole thing is from Marga Hills or if its just a wrap around winglet piece that fit to the OEM ITR wing? It looks like the wing is higher than the OEM wing but i'm not sure...

because it's most likely actually beneficial and has to be tall to get in the air stream

I doubt this was wind tunnel tested... The OEM spoiler decreases drag by 1% and coefficient of lift by 30%.

I think your best bet is to contact Bulletproofautomotive. I have seen that same pic from Bulletproof for the last 5 years now but I have never heard of or seen one in person. Ever.
