agreed, because it looks home made.

I think its a stock wing that has been put back together, or grafted with another stock wing?

center is embossed with the mazda logo, not a decal

Looks like they cut the middle from an oem front bumper and wrapped it around a wangan wing to get the logo. Held together with rivets, it looks hack as is in my opinion.

Looks to me like a stock S5 combined with a S4 sport.. Or maybe a Wangan combined with an S4 sport...

Def not an s4 sport, that material would not take kindly to rivets. That center section actually looks plastic and it has a step to it if you look at the top view

But if you look at the bottom, it has the cutout for the middle brakelight. So the real answer is: Who the hell knows

Wait! This looks identical in shape to the rare dealer offered Finishline spoiler. Besides for the rivots, but that finishline spoiler has a 'separation' exactly where this does.

Take a look at the finishline sticky thread post 6

would seem that someone crashed into it or sat on it and it broke, I dont think someone would just add a bunch of rivets for that airplane look

It does look stepped like the Finishline spoiler. What material was the Finishline spoiler made of though?
