Default Another style from China for Toyota Prado
This is another style of mid-wing spoiler from China.

Give me something that will keep road dust off of the rear GX...This thing is a magnet for dust, I come home after a car wash to do some detailing and the rear is dusty after a three mile trip home

Agree ... interesting how the GX470 did not have even close to this level of build-up problem ... but maybe makes sense given the GX470 spoiler seemed to direct an air stream down over the back window.

I think this could possibly help with diverting the airflow from the bottom up and help with dust on the back window.
