i have the trd wing on my hatch w/o reinforcing it at the moment (just have bigger washers). if you get an aftermarket universal wing than you would have to reinforce the hatch.

the stock/trd wings are made for our cars and provide enough downforce with light drag. so other words the wing is being pushed down into the hatch rather than up and away.

well then i recommend you reinforce that little baby before it does crack...it'd be a shame to see it crack
although i highly doubt stock/trd wings prove any reasonable amount of downforce more then it does drag..
