What does the kamm extension do?

I was looking at some pics of modified Mirages, and some of them look really slick.

Are there body kits and rims, etc available for these things in North America?
The kamm extension is to help with the aerodynamics of the rear of the car, its often the second thing forgotten about, right behind the underside of the car.

There's a few modified mirages out there and there is body kits as well as oem body styling kits. Wheels are very easy to come by with the 4x100 lug pattern that is very common. I hope to get some 13'' wheels and snow tires for the winter soon. The most popular modification to the body of Mirages is plastidipping the front end to make it look like other mitsubishi's.



This is an example with Civic VX wheels and plastidipped front end.
