Is this the wing from the TRD widebody kit? From this pic below it looks like it attaches straight to the lid.

If you after a big wing like that one (that fits) Gorilla Industries is selling an awesome fibreglass bootlid with a rare wing attached.

Found this online  I'm not sure on the wing to be honest but i'd say can always ask for a refund and try another company like carmate or spend more and purchase the original. There might be some slight modification that need to be done as well to make it fit. ** Note** this post is irrespective of my personal associations with motorkitz

On the TRD widebody there is a piece that sits on the boot lid to blend in with the TRD2000 rear arches. The TRD kit is a lot more squared and as such its necessary to keep the boot lid flush with the body work. The above red car actually does have it but is blended in to the rest of the kit. Its a bit more obvious in the below picture.

You have to remember that it is designed to go on a WIDEBODY. If you look at the first boot lid it overhangs the actual lid. Notice how this one is not overhanging the boot lid  They can be made to fit
