Im pretty sure the stock spoiler on the Yaris LB is non-functional, but if not, my impression is that many cars that come with spoilers (especially front wheel drive cars) have non functional/cosmetic uses only. It depends on the size and angle of the spoiler, otherwise its not creating downforce, just drag.

maybe the spoiler im referring to would create less of the aforementioned vacuum. dont know

Ah, nonfunctional... Well I thought you meant one made specifically to reduce over all drag. Yes, I'm sure some spoilers produce negligible down-force and mostly drag. It's easy to add a stylish looking "spoiler" but it would take some wind tunnel time (or at least a solid knowledge of aerodynamics) to set up a spoiler specifically to reduce overall drag.

That's what I figured. Maybe someone will come along. I'm generally opposed to purely cosmetic mods so to justify a spoiler or front lip for that matter I'd want to have some backing.

I would still love to see some more pics and info about that diffuser...
