I don't buy that this lip creates siginificantly levels of downforce. Any lip, almost irrespective of the shape, if positioned to direct flow around the car instead of under it will help with high speed stability, but actual downforce? Minimal. I see nothing special about this lip other than that it looks pretty sweet.

Show me some test data and I'll be a believer but I'm not holding my breath.
