M3P Rear Carbon Spoiler

[SleeperService]

Now if Unplugged would just actually RELEASE the darn spoiler so I could buy it...

This part is irrelevant to promoting their product, and concerns the factory spoiler.

"
Overview: The optional factory Tesla rear spoiler provides sleek looks with optimized airflow characteristics to enhance efficiency as well as high speed stability.

Result: As expected, this product is not just for looks, it indeed performs improvements in high-speed stability and drag reduction. The vehicle’s total drag was reduced by 2.3% and the rear downforce was increased over baseline by 34.7%. This reduced the total drag coefficient (Cd) by 0.005.
"

Cd of production cars being from 0.20 to 0.40, a claimed reduction of 0.005 is no better than measurement noise.

Rear downforce was increased over baseline by 34.7%.

At what speed? From how much baseline?
Funny how this time they neglect to to provide absolute values.

If your life savings total $1, and you increased it by 34.7% to $1.35, it's still virtually nothing.

So how much downforce is there at 140mph that you claimed?

Are you 12 years old or something?

Are you uneducated or something?

Obviously you don't understand aerodynamics; for the most part they are linear. You can run and google that too. Have a good day!

Aerodynamics square with speed. That's both for drag and downforce/lift.

You were better off giving the impression that you didn't know anything, rather than confirming it squarely.

From the pictures it looked like the closest match I have seen to the OEM spoiler, and I know as I work with a guy who has the M3P and park next to it everyday.

You didn't mention how well it compares to the OEM spoiler.
