I'm rather suprised to see you ask that question mike.

I'd say about the same function as the strakes, clear sidemarkers, etc. Just for looks.

I think it might be the perfect look to top off not having a rear spoiler

i don't think that is an intel sticker... you can get stickers like that that are a copy of the intel sticker that say "beast inside, rotor inside etc..."
<get custom one's here>

i think the roof spoiler looks stupid and if it serves no function it has no use but to make the car look like crap..OH and waste your money

it possibly only serves a function if you constantly run over 100mph...other than that..just for looks... i guess you can kind of compare it to a spoon duckbill spoiler (only smaller) on an EK...

Some might be more interested in the lip spoiler on the tail of the pictured car.
