Are you talking about the wind splitters? Mounts along the tops of the
fenders from the front near the turn signals to the windshield?
Ive seen them on a few cars. Supposedly they do add some downforce to the
front of cars but evidently its not worth it since ive not seen them on
race cars of today. (or wanna be racecars) I remember seeing them in JC
Whitney years ago. 
I also think that Zender made or makes them?
