I think he's talking about the plastic piece that goes on top of the tail gate to keep it from getting dinged up. Not a literal spoiler.

Can always get a cool ricer apc wing bolt it to the inside of the tail gate and when ever you feel the need to be fast and furious just drop the gate. LOL. But seriuosly what kinda wing are we talking here.

I've heard that they help a little bit with fuel mileage
Tere has to be a reason they use them now I would like to experiment

It does indeed help smooth the airflow coming off the truck, cleaning the trailing wake and reducing it's size. AKA, it helps the truck slip through the air easier = better MPG. How much? Well... hard telling.:roflsquared:

if nobody has one you can always get it from your dealer, and then you can get the hardware to install it. you will have to drill holes in your talegate to install it.

Yes, i'm looking for the stock tailgate spoiler, not some crazy wing thing :) The top of my tailgate is dented and looks like crap and I'd like to cover it up. I've talked to some dealers and honestly they just want too much for them, so I was hoping to find a deal here from somone who no longer wants theirs.

$110. I asked if they would sell for $85 and I got a big NO, I've seen some dealers online selling for $88 but then asking $25 for shipping so not really a deal.
