Making an Explorer wing from a Kia Sedona wing

I wanted something more than the OEM spoiler that came from Ford. There are companies making wings for Explorers, but I did not like any of them. The only one that looked good to me was made by Saleen and was on the Saleen XP8 Explorers. They have since quit building the XP8's and all the parts for them. The only option that left me was to make my own. I started looking at different vehicles to see which wing could be modified to fit an Explorer and look good. I ran across a Kia Sedona and their wing was very close and could be modified fairly easy to fit. This is the way I did it:

These are pictures of the wing from a Kia Sedona.

This is how it looks from the side when held up on a 1995-1997 Explorer hatch. You can see where I had to trim and modify the edges to fit the contour of the sides of the hatch. 

The stock Sedona wing is too long for an Explorer, so the center has to be trimmed to fit the width.

I cut a section of the center out. You want to measure the center and cut the same width from each side. If not, the wing contours will not match up when you put it together.
