Red face Air deflector

I'm trying to locate an air deflector for under the front bumper on my 2006 4Runner. Trying to get a little better mileage and down force. Any suggestions on where to buy??

Thx,

Jim

Lowriders-r-us?

You won't see that much, if any, improvement and/or downforce at legal highway speeds. The truck has the aerodynamics of a brick. It's not a F1 car...

Welcome to yotatech!

Down force? The last thing you need is more weight (imaginary or not) if your trying to improve fuel economy. Why not put a sand bag under the hood! That will increase down force! Want better fuel economy? Get better driving habits, gut the interior, bolt a lawn chair in its place, and get a gym membership. Or sell the suv and get a prius. Key word here is SUV.
